How to Donate to The Book Bunker

No more climbing stairs to drop off your book donations! The Book Bunker is just a little farther along on the curved driveway, on the ground level of James Hall, the beautiful old mansion on campus. Just pull up, open the doors to the Book Bunker, drop off your donation, and kindly close the doors. And please watch your head: the clearance is a bit low. Please see the photos . The white arrow superimposed on the driveway in the photo below points to the Book Bunker.
