We prefer the following types and categories of books but this changes from time to time: Academically related titles in Art, Architecture, Classics, Philosophy, Reference, very recent bestsellers, Georgia history and other southern history books of interest. Generally, our pricing is as follows: Hardback non-fiction $1 to $5, Paperback non-fiction, 50 cents to $3, Fiction 50 cents to $2. We rarely take in mass market paperbacks.

We do not buy the following: Family bibles, outdated textbooks, old encyclopedias, adult series westerns and romances, book club editions, older computer and travel books, magazines.

We take in donated books when we have the room. These books are placed on our sidewalk shelves and the proceeds are donated to the Decatur Rotary Club Foundation.
