Donating Books

We would like to thank our local school community of Unionville Chadds Ford School District(UCFSD) for their donations - without them this sale would not be possible. The UCFSD community is a community of readers who donate a large amount of books and a large variety of book genres. Our sales are only as good as our donations. We can only sell books that are in good condition. Books that are moldy or smelly, have torn covers or missing pages, or have been nibbled on by the family pet cannot be sold. Please recycle these books yourself.

Book Drop Off - Starts January 31, 2011 at all UCFSD buildings:

Book donors - Please drop off your donations at the Unionville High School on lower level past the tennis courts near the cafeteria. The building is open from 6:30am. Walk through the receiving area door that has green "book Sale" sign on it and follow signage.
