2024 FALL BOOK, MOVIE & MUSIC DONATION DAYS

June 1 - August 31, 2024

The College Women's Club of Montclair (CWCM) is a 501c3 nonprofit. Staffed entirely of volunteers from Montclair and surrounding towns, the CWCM holds two book sales each year - one in the spring and another in the fall. In between sales, students and volunteers collect books from community members, which are then priced and organized into sections for easier selection.​​

We have thousands of new and gently used hardcovers, paperbacks, CDs, LPs, DVDs/BluRays, audiobooks & sheet music. ​Although we are known for our books, the CWCM sells vinyl records, DVDs, sheet music, maps, and postcards, too - most books are $3 or less!

We are open Saturday mornings starting, Saturday, June 1, for donations. We accept LIMITED donations at Booksale Headquarters on the following Saturdays from 9:30am until 11:45am. Donors may drop off no more than 10 containers each week, either bags, cartons (with maximum dimensions of 10” X 12” X 15”) or a combination.
