Q: Can I make a donation in memory or honor of someone?

A:  Yes, we welcome Bucks for Books donations in memory or honor of a special person. When you make your donation, please write a note to designate in whose memory the gift is being given. An acknowledgement form and receipt will be mailed to you.

Q: Can we donate books?

A:  While the library welcomes book donations, they are not accepted for Bucks for Books. The Library receives discounts on the books it purchases and can therefore make money go further than book donations.

A:  Because all books are available to every Holmes County District Public Library patron, all donations received will benefit the entire library system, including your local library or bookmobile.

Q: Can we donate for a specific collection of books (i.e. children's, large print)?

A:  As with the question above, all donations will be used for the Holmes County District Public Library's entire book collection, benefiting all customers regardless of age or interests.
