Decluttering? Donate Books to Booksavers of Virginia

Posted December 17, 2025 in JMU Libraries News

If your New Year’s resolutions include decluttering, you can donate fiction books to our Read Purple novel exchange in Hartman Hall! Other books–including textbooks–can be donated to Booksavers of Virginia, a non-profit used bookstore here in Harrisonburg.

Don’t worry if your books are damaged or out of date – all unsaleable books (after they are given a fair chance) are recycled! Booksavers is located in the back of Gift and Thrift. Visit the Gift and Thrift donation page for drop-off hours and location.
