To donate books

If you have books that you’ve enjoyed but no longer need, we’d love to have them. This year, The Commons needs to bring in $19,400 in book sales to support our space, programs, and staff.

Books that meet the following criteria sell best:

  • Gently used
  • Fiction or non-fiction
  • Books published since 1991
  • Timeless classics
  • High-value books, such as first editions and autographed books by well-known authors

Bring your book donations by the Coffeehouse at 124 Second St. in Langley or contact us if you would like us to pick up your books. For a tax receipt, click here.
