      Hi Geraldine,

      Visit Central Library during the hours when the mail room and the book donation room are staffed (usually Monday-Saturday, 10-5). If you pull up to the loading dock, off the 10th Street parking lot, and ring the bell at the door there, someone should be available to help you.

      Hi Ineke,

      Cash, check and credit card payments are all happily accepted.
