Donate Materials to the Minot-Sleeper Library
Memorial books or other library materials may be donated in honor of a friend or relative, and are marked with a special bookplate. The continued presence of the book within the collection is based on the judgment of the Library Director and the use, wear, and appropriateness of the book will be taken into consideration.
Used books, paperbacks, and other media can often be used in the library's collection. The Library Director will have final decision as to the disposition of gifted media material. Books must be in good, clean, odor free condition in order for the Library to accept the donation. We cannot tell you immediately how your gift will be used as we need to check our holdings, check the condition of the material, and prepare the items for whatever we decide to do. Generally, the Library does not accept textbooks or books in poor physical condition.

Volunteer at the Library
Do you enjoying organizing? Are you creative and would enjoying preparing children's crafts? Perhaps you have hidden talents that your Library can use. All volunteers must complete a background check for the Town of Bristol. Contact us at the Library for more information at 603-744-3352 or email librarian@townofbristolnh.org.
Giving Tree
Every year between Thanksgiving and the end of the year, the library invites our community to give the gift of shared resources by purchasing a book or movie title from our Giving Tree to be added to the library's collection. The Giving Tree is located inside the library and is adorned with tags with titles of books and movies. To purchase an item, simply choose a tag, bring it to the desk with payment (we accept cash or check), and our librarians will purchase the book, process it, and get it on the library's shelves for the community to enjoy!
Thank you for your support of the library and our community!
