All proceeds benefit the Library.

Kyes-Sage House will open for the 2025 season on Thursday, May 1st.

Book donations Accepted: Friday, April 25th and Saturday, April 26th from 10am-3pm
To ensure donations meet our criteria (see below) volunteers screen all incoming books, so we ask that books only be brought to the bookshop (and not the Library) during bookshop open hours.

Book Donation Guidelines

We take:
• Adult fiction—but not science fiction, fantasy, or romance
• Biographies
• Histories
• Children’s fiction and non-fiction

We do not take:
• Books that are stained or carry an odor of must, mildew or smoke
• Books with missing front covers, markups, tears, etc.
• Textbooks, Encyclopedias, Magazines
• Abridged versions or condensed books or advance readers’ copies/uncorrected proofs
• Public library discards

The Friends of the Library operate a bookshop located directly next to the Town Library in the historical Kyes-Sage House. The shop sells a broad selection of fiction, biographies, history, and children’s books. We sometimes have older, perhaps collectable, books and welcome book dealers.
