Program Description

Description

Tired of the jigsaw puzzles and board games you’ve got at home?  Donate your gently used puzzles and games to the library, then “shop the swap” to find new-to-you items to take home. Bring board games and puzzles of 250 pieces or more to the 2nd floor reference desk starting Tuesday, July 1, and receive a voucher with the number of items you donated.  Bring the voucher with you on July 19 to shop the swap. You’ll be able to take the same number of items home with you.  Any unclaimed puzzles or games will be used for library programming or donated elsewhere. Please donate complete puzzles and games only.

Park inside the gated lot (VISITOR LOT 4).  Bring your parking ticket with you inside the library to be validated by library staff.  Parking is FREE if you get your ticket validated.  Parking outside the gated lot may result in a parking violation from the University of Houston.
