Book Donation Procedures

Thanks for thinking of our library! If you would like to donate new or used books to the Dr. MLK School Library please consider the following:

  • Books should be in very good condition (i.e. no ripped pages, writing in book, water stains, etc.).
  • Hard cover books are best for the library, due to circulation wear and tear.
  • Content and level of book should be appropriate for a K-5 school (please no copies of the Hunger Games and other YA material).

The librarian has the discretion to not use the books in the library, this may happen if:

  • Books are in too poor condition to circulate.
  • Content is not appropriate.
  • There are currently multiple copies of the book in the collection.

If this is the case, the books may be donated to classroom teachers, other students in the school, or another charity or depository.

Please also consider taking a look at our Amazon wishlist for titles that we would love to include in our collection.
