Now Accepting Book Donations
Now until sometime in the Spring, instead of dropping items in the parking lot shed, you may bring in two boxes per day to our front desk.
Our staff will evaluate the condition of your items and determine if they are appropriate for the sale. Please make sure they are in like-new conditions and are items you would purchase again.
Like-new means:
Covers are intact no odors not chewed on
haven’t been wet not stained didn’t need to be dusted off first
not stored in your basement
We do not accept:
encyclopedias textbooks videotapes (VHS)
magazines Readers Digest Books cassette tapes
vinyl records toys/games
Please understand that while you may think your books are priceless, we know from experience what will sell. (That’s why the sale is so popular and a fantastic fundraiser for the KTL!) Any items not accepted are yours to take home – and remember, all books have a shelf-life so it’s OK if some end up in the big circular file commonly known as the refuse bin.
Thank you for contributing to Friends 2025 Book Sale!
Messages from Survivors:
One Family’s Holocaust Legacy
On view in January
This interactive display, on loan from the Central New York Library Resources Council, will be on view in the Bristol Room throughout January. Each of the six informational panels shares stories and messages from one Jewish family and includes a QR code linked to a corresponding video. Visitors can also take home a shoe box card with photos, a video QR code, and a message from the survivor(s) that was purposefully shared for future generations to hear.
Hannaford Bloomin’ For Good
Throughout the month of January, the KTL will receive a $1 donation for every Bloomin’ 4 Good Bouquet with the red circle sticker purchased at the Clinton Hannaford. Flowers can make someone’s day, spread smiles, and brighten up a room. This month, they can also help the Library. A bouquet of flowers is a great gift. The Bloomin’ 4 Good Bouquets with the red circle sticker are located in the floral section of the store.
New This Winter – Borrow a Kicksled
Kicksleds consist of a chair mounted on a pair of flexible metal runners that extend backward to about twice the chair’s length. Someone can sit in the chair while someone else propels the sled by kicking the ground by foot. We have five different sizes for you to choose from (size is based on the height of the user from 3’3” to taller than 6’). Stop in to borrow one and enjoy the snow!
