York County Libraries gratefully accepts donations of material goods and non-cash contributions which are in line with its mission and programming. Donations are accepted at the discretion of the individual library, but may include:

1. Items, including food, to be used for events or programs sponsored by York County Libraries or Friends Groups, e.g. items donated for a raffle, to be sold at auction, to be given to participants in a library-sponsored program (e.g. SummerQuest).
2. Advertising (print, billboard, radio time, television time) for which there has been no charge to York County Libraries.
3. A donation of services.
   1. Note: Contributed services cannot be counted as a gift and do not qualify as a charitable tax deduction to the donor. However, a donor of services may be able to deduct expenses incurred while performing said services. In such cases, the donor is advised to consult with a tax accountant.

Regarding tax credit: It is the sole responsibility of the donor to determine the value of a contributed item; York County Libraries staff members are unable to assign a value to the donated item(s).

Please contact your local library to discuss your in-kind donation.

Our libraries are happy to accept new or used books in good condition!

York County Libraries’ Honors Events highlight prominent library supporters and community members. A key component of the Honors Event is to raise funds in the name of our Honorees. The host libraries then use these proceeds to help add to their collection.
