I used to buy some at the Brooklyn Public Library, but they don't have any for sale any longer.
Do you know where I can purchase some cheap used hard covered books?
The contents of the book doesn't matter, as it's for a craft.

I don't know where you can get locally, but any second hand store like Goodwill usually has.

How about some university co-op style bookshop, NYU, or CUNY?
I remember B&N near Union Square used to have huge textbook section with many used books but that was SOME time ago.

people are ALWAYS offering old books for free on freecycle. Half of it is probably garbage that no one wants anyway. All free, you just have to pick them up.
