Most of our library locations, except for IdeaSpace, opens a new window and Spotsylvania Towne Centre,, opens a new window feature their own bookstores and book sales. These typically occur at the end of each month, often with special pricing days.
The dates and times are available on our event calendar. For any questions regarding sales, please contact your local branch for further information. If you wish to donate materials for these sales, details on donations are provided below.
Book Donations
We gladly accept new and gently used materials as space allows. Unfortunately, we cannot accept:
• Textbooks
• VHS
• Cassettes
• Magazines
• Damaged items
• Computer manuals
• Encyclopedias
Once items are donated, they become the property of Central Rappahannock Regional Library. Several things can happen when items are donated. They could:
- Be added to the collection, but this is not guaranteed.
- Be sold at a Friends of the Library book sale, which benefits the Library.
- Be otherwise handled.
We are unable to follow up on donated items.
