Hillsboro Public Library accepts donations of a wide variety of materials, including hardcover books, paperbacks, children's materials, movies, music, audio books, and game cartridges, as well as items of potential use in the Library of Things collection. 

Please bring all items for donation to the Brookwood Library at 2850 NE Brookwood Parkway, Hillsboro, OR 97124.

Donations are considered outright and unrestricted, to be used in the best interest of Hillsboro Public Library. Donors should not assume that any materials they donate will be added to the collection.

Hillsboro Public Library employees cannot appraise donations for tax purposes. For the protection of the donor, it is recommended that such appraisals be done by a qualified party before bringing donations to the libraries.

Hillsboro Public Library does not serve as a depository for records, in any format, owned or loaned by agencies, organizations, or individuals, either on a temporary or permanent basis.

Monetary donations for bequests and memorials are welcome. Items purchased by Library staff for memorials will be marked with a bookplate and a notice sent to family members if contact information is provided.

Monetary donations, bequests, and memorials over $500 are encouraged through The Library Foundation of Hillsboro. Further information may be found on the Library Foundation's Donate webpage.


How to Donate

No appointment is needed for donations of up to 15 boxes or bags at the Brookwood Library. For larger donations, arrange an appointment by calling the Friends at 503-615-2461. Receipt forms can be found here: Donations of Library Materials Form
