Donate Books

Get involved by donating books!


You can help by donating your unwanted books at one of our Reading Tree book bins. We accept all types of books - children's, adult, hardback and paperback. Children's books will be donated to schools, family literacy programs, and international libraries - over 1.6 million books were donated to such programs in 2008! Unusable books will be recycled, preventing unnecessary additions to our nation's landfills, and some books may be sold to help pay for our programs.

Encourage your friends and family to get involved by donating books to Reading Tree!

Reading Tree needs your help in collecting books - through our co-branded book bins. If your company is located in a high traffic area, consider sponsoring one of our book bins. Imagine the goodwill generated when your company partners to donate thousands of books with Reading Tree! Your company will be prominently featured and recognized for its support during book donation events at schools and other community activities. For more information about how to host a donation bin, contact us.
