Hey, Valdez! We are currently gathering gently used books to stock our community’s Little Free Libraries at the harbors, proudly hosted and maintained by the Valdez Consortium Library!

Do your bookshelves at home need some clearing out? We are looking for children's books, young adult novels, and popular adult fiction or nonfiction in good condition. Paperbacks work best, but we accept all usable books.

How to donate: drop them off at the main circulation desk inside the Valdez Consortium Library.

Every shared book helps build a more connected community and keeps reading accessible for everyone, even those passing through our town. Thank you for your generosity! ❤️📖
