Book Sales

Westport Library Book Sales are a long-standing community tradition, powered by a dedicated team of volunteers, and raising invaluable support for the Library annually. Each year, generous patrons donate tens of thousands of used books for resale to benefit the Library.

The Library's Book Sales are operated by Westport Book Sale Ventures, an independent non-profit enterprise with the dual social mission to support the Westport Library, while providing meaningful employment for adults with disabilities. For more information, visit www.westportbooksales.org.

Now you can shop for gently used books all year-round, at the new Westport Book Shop, located at 23 Jesup Road, right across Jesup Green from the Library!  For store hours, visit www.westportbooksales.org

You can also shop 24/7 at the Westport Book Sale Online Store. 

The Book Sale also holds periodic Book Sale Events, one or more times a year. Join the Book Sale’s e-mail list to receive notice of Sale Events.

Please Note: The Book Donation Center will be CLOSED for one week, from Friday Dec. 24, 2021 through Sunday January 2, 2022.   It will reopen Monday January 3, 2022.  Happy New Year!

Your donation of very gently used books, vinyl records and other media may be made, during our winter hours, Monday through Saturday from 9am to 4pm. We will be closed Sundays. 

Bring donations at that time to the grey brick shed next to the big grey Book Donation Center in the Library’s Upper Parking Lot.

For details about how to donate your books, and what materials are accepted for donation, please visit the Book Sale’s website at www.westportbooksales.org. A receipt acknowledging your donation for tax purposes will be available at the time of donation.

Please, do not leave book donations on the ground outside the Book Donation Center. Unfortunately, any materials left outside will be recycled, not resold, due to exposure to the elements.

We are very grateful to our generous community of readers and book donors, and we thank you for your support.
