Let us find your gently used books a new home

Donate your books and help us raise funds for the Buda Library! We sell gently used books throughout the year on our bookshelf at the Buda Library (next to the front door) and during community pop up book sales.

Sharing the Love of Reading

Your book donations not only help us raise funds for the Buda Library, they help us expand access to books and promote literacy in our community. We donate books for children/teens to the Little Free Library at McCormick Elementary (Charter #78210). The Friends are stewards of the Little Free Library at the school thanks to a partnership with Thrivent Financial and Hays Free Press.
