Our spring and fall book sales are our biggest fundraisers and events of the year. Through the generous donations from our community, we have an extensive collection of materials for all ages and interests. Categories include: fiction, business/marketing, home improvement, gardening, pets, religion/spirituality, science, classic literature (ideal for high-school and college students), childrens’ books, and so much more! Our books are reasonably priced, with many $1.00 or less. Click here to see the date and times of our next book sale.
Donate Year-Round:
Kindly drop off any gently-used books, DVDs, or other materials to any service desk or librarian at the Urbana Regional Library.
Your donations will be passed on to our sorting team to circulate at our Fall and Spring Used Book Sales. All FURL donations benefit the library.

A tax-deductible receipt is available upon request from librarians.
Volunteer:
Setting up for the book sale is usually a 2 day process. Typically the Thursday and Friday before the book sale we request all the help we can get to pull the books from storage and set them up. Anyone who wishes to help is welcomed!
