Semi-Annual FREE Book Swap

GreenSalem.com is sponsoring another of their semi-annual book swaps at the Senior Center on Broad Street. (That is only 2 blocks from us) If you've never been to one, these swaps are busy and surprisingly fun.

The swap is September 19, 2015 from 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM
 
If you have a lot of items, they can be dropped off ahead of time on Friday, September 18th from 5-7 p.m and on Saturday, September 19th from 9:45 a.m.-12noon.

The book swap is a great way to recycle any of your unwanted books, greeting cards; and commercial CDs, DVDs and videos. Take home a whole new selection of items, cards and even some bestselling books. All books are accepted—even text books.
No swap is needed - you can donate materials, take materials, or both.

SalemRecycles is the City’s volunteer recycling committee which works to increase recycling and encourage positive recycling practices through educational outreach and special events. Through the last eleven Book Swaps, SalemRecycles has hosted over 4,200 participants; recycled an estimated 57,000 books, and avoided over 28 tons of landfill disposal.

For more information about SalemRecycles or the Book Swap, please call(978)-619-5679 or visit www.salem.com/recycling or GreenSalem.com. Like SalemRecycles on Facebook.
All left over materials will be donated or recycled.
