Give Supplies a Second Life

Students, faculty and staff can donate new or gently used supplies to be reused and repurposed, or find materials to inspire and complete projects without having to purchase them new.

The Supplies Swap is made possible by the participation and support of library staff. Please be respectful when donating and taking materials. For more information or feedback, please contact Ana Diab.

Donating Supplies

If you wish to donate supplies please bring them to the library and we can take usable items that we have space for. Please keep the items organized so other students can easily find and access what they need for their projects and to help library staff maintain the shelf. We do not accept large donations or hazardous materials.

We cannot provide tax receipts for supplies swap donations.

Using Supplies

If you need supplies for a project, please visit the Supplies Swap and take only what you need.
