Friends of Salem Public Library

Sales Policy for Books & Other Donated Items

All books & other merchandise sold through the Friends Book Store are donated by members of the public. We also accept ex-library books & other materials donated by public libraries. The store does not “buy” books for resale. A receipt for the donated items will be given upon request. Donations of books & other items are greatly appreciated & help raise money to support many library programs.

All books & other merchandise sold through the store are sold “as is.” There are no refunds, so patrons are urged to carefully inspect their potential purchases before making their transaction. In the case of defects that would not be obvious with videos, CDs, etc, a store credit will be issued.

The store staff endeavors to sell material that is in at least “good” or better condition. The ultimate judge, however, is always the customer.
