Join us the week of Oct 6th for the Sustainability Week Book Swap. This is your chance to refresh your bookshelves at home. Bring in books you’ve read or would love to pass on, browse the volumes brought in by your friends and colleagues, and take home some new-to-you books. A cart will be designated at the following library locations across campus. For building hours please check https://web.library.yale.edu/buildings

We do not accept any of the following:
• Reference books like encyclopedias, thesauruses, atlases, dictionaries, etc.
