Used Book Sale

Each spring, the Dobbs Ferry PTSA holds its annual used book sale. You can donate your gently used books and then come shop for new ones!

About the Event

  • Book Drop-Off

    Parents and community members are invited to drop off their gently used books at Springhurst Elementary School. The PTSA will sort and organize your donations in preparation for the sale.

  • Book Sale

    The book sale is held in the gym at Springhurst Elementary School over a few days. Students are taken during school to shop the sale and adults/community members are invited to come at the weekend.

    People browsing and sorting through books in a gymnasium turned into a book sale event, with tables and boxes of books arranged on the floor.

  • For Kids

    Each child who comes to the book sale will get one free book. We want to make sure everyone gets a “new” book to take home to read. They’re also allowed to bring money from home to buy more if they want.
