Need help getting your books to us?
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer a pick up service for large donations. If you need assistance in getting your books to us, we recommend College Hunks Moving & Hauling, an organization offering professional residential and commercial moving, junk removal, and donation pickup and delivery services. You can learn more about the organization here. Fees apply.
Recording Your Donations for Tax Purposes
Use this form to itemize your contribution of used books and media to the Jefferson County Library Foundation. Items donated may be deductible for income tax purposes at their present “fair market value” as provided by law. The IRS tax code places the responsibility for estimating the fair market value on you, the donor.
