Y’all donate a lot of books to us. Thank you! We do our best to get every single book to a good home: either in the library or to another book lover outside the library. But sometimes, despite our best efforts, we’re unable to match that book with a buyer.
That’s where Better World Books comes in. We send them books that we can’t sell but still need a good place to be.
This short profile in Mother Earth News highlights the awesome thing about Better World: it exists to promote literacy around the world. They take books from over 900 libraries and 1600 colleges & universities, resell them, and then they use the proceeds to donate to over 80 literacy and education non-profits all over the world.
Because they sell all over the world online, they can usually sell the books we can’t. Kudos to Better World!
