my local library accepts donations of any and all books. i think most of them go into the books exchange (they stick the books on a table in the entry, and you can take any of them that interest you, for free, and add any of your own books you want to give away), but maybe they keep some of them for the collection if they are decent quality. they have a special library rebinding service they use so a paperback will get sent out to be rebound and come back with a stiff cover and plastic film over the outside for protection. so even a paperback could be of interest to them if it were in demand.
there is also a pub just near my house where i can give books for their informal lending library (a big bookshelf on the back wall with books for patrons to read).
