Book Drops Around the Island

In addition to the book drop in front of the library, we have three more book drops conveniently located around the island:

• To the east: the Olga book drop is located right next to the Olga store.
• On the west side, in Deer Harbor: you can find the book drop in front of the Deer Harbor Community Club.
• At the Orcas ferry landing: the book drop sits in front of the Cottage Gift Shop on Orcas Road.

The book drops are checked and emptied on a weekly basis.
