Funding Literacy ... By the Book!

Welcome to the Better World Books Blog! We created this forum to connect you with other members of the BWB community and to help you stay informed. We think this will be a powerful tool for all of us as we continue to grow and expand our support for world wide literacy.

I’ve been in love with reading most of my life.  My affection for the written word eventually translated into both a love of and career in libraries for most of my adult life.

Like most people who work in libraries, I love getting books into the hands  of those who enjoy reading as much as I do.  Better World Books allows me to do this on a much larger scale than ever before—not only are we helping to get books into the hands of those in search of a good read around the world, we’re helping our Literacy Partners generate funds to create a new wave of avid readers.

I feel especially lucky to be a part of this unique company because I’m well aware of the challenge libraries face when it comes to their discards and donations.  By offering libraries a socially and environmentally responsible outlet for their books that’s not only easy, effective, and free, I know we’re offering them a solution they can use!
