Donating to our Sales

When and where to donate books & materials

The Southborough Library is not currently accepting book and/or materials donations at this time. We accept materials twice a year, in the weeks leading up to our Fall and Spring book sales. Please watch this website and sign up for Library emails to be notified when donation drop off opens.  


In the meantime, you can always donate directly (a few books at a time) to one of our Little Free Library sites at the Southborough Commuter Rail Station, Fayville Park playground, or the one near the Woodward School playground. There is a map online here: https://littlefreelibrary.org/ourmap/ - just enter the “01772” zip code to find those and other sites in town.


Community Book Sales

Join us for our big sales in June & in October

Friends members organize three special book sales per year – in June, October, and December - as fundraisers for the Library. There, you can find gently used books at below bargain basement prices and delight in browsing a wide selection of hardcover and paperback fiction as well as nonfiction books for adults, teens and children. Fun fact: every child gets to go home with one free book! We also sell DVDs, Blu Rays, Video Games, and Audio CDs. 


Get up to date information about any upcoming book sales by signing up for the Library’s eNewsletter or checking out the Southborough Library Facebook page.


Materials we accept

What do we not take?

Books! All books should be in good, readable condition without mildew, mold, or water damage. (We do not accept donations of encyclopedias, dictionaries, or magazines).  You can also bring us your old DVDs, Blu Rays, Video Games [all systems], and Audio CDs.
