DONATE BOOKS TO SUPPORT RADNOR MEMORIAL LIBRARY

We want your books and we accept donations year-round. The Friends of the Library run successful book sales offering books that are 99.9% donated by the Radnor community. Here are a few policies and some simple guidelines.

POLICIES

  2. You are encouraged to come to the lower (Winsor Room) door on Tuesdays and Fridays or the first Saturday of the month from 1 pm to 3 pm. Press the buzzer hard. Come with donations large or small. The Friends of the Library can usually offer curb-side help. We don’t have a pick-up service.
