St. John the Baptist Parish Library — LaPlace in LaPlace, Louisiana is a physical donation or reuse resource for fiction and nonfiction books, local history and genealogy materials, craft and cookbooks, DVDs and audiobooks on CD that meet the library’s donation standards. The library does not accept magazines, encyclopedias, legal materials, textbooks, moldy or damaged items, videocassettes, cassette tapes, vinyl records, software, or older nonfiction outside its stated recency guidance. Bring suitable materials to the library during open hours and contact staff before moving a large estate collection so quantity and condition can be reviewed.

Accepted materials can support the library collection or other library uses, providing a precise reuse option for estate books and media that fit published criteria. For an executor or family clearing an estate, this location may provide a reuse path for suitable property rather than disposal. Acceptance can change with storage capacity, condition, seasonal needs, safety rules, and resale or program demand, so confirm unusually large, fragile, upholstered, electrical, medical, or specialty items before transporting them.

Save a trip! Call St. John the Baptist Parish Library — LaPlace first to confirm hours and that they are accepting what you’re bringing.
