Donating Through Another Organization?

Some organizations, including Friends of the James Memorial Public Library, support JMPL while also supporting other literacy, book, and community initiatives. If you make a donation through another organization and specifically want your contribution to benefit James Memorial Public Library, please clearly designate your donation for JMPL. Without that designation, funds donated to another organization may be used for that organization’s other programs, projects, or initiatives.

Book Donations

James Memorial Public Library gladly accepts donations of gently used books. 
​We do ask that they be clean and in fair condition (covers intact, free of strong odors and water/animal damage).  We take all books except text books and encyclopedias, and we also accept donations of CDs, DVDs, and magazines (with the exception of National Geographic magazines).  You can bring your donation by the library any time during regular business hours.  If you have a large or heavy donation, please call us so that we can direct you to the rear entrance for easier accessibility. 

Memorial Donations

Many people request donations to charity in lieu of plants and flowers, in memory of a loved one who has passed.  One of many alternatives is a memorial book donation; we are pleased to be able to offer this service to our patrons.  You may choose a book, if there is one that has special meaning for you, or we are happy to choose a book for you.  Your loved one will be memorialized with a plaque inside the book's front cover, with a message of your choosing.

Monetary Donations

Many people request to make Monetary Donations for various Fund Raising processes. James Memorial Public Library gladly accepts donations for Fund Raising which we gratefully appreciate to accomplish our Fund Raisers.
