Reuse First

The Great American Book Drive



The campaign is national.
The book drives are local.
The benefits are global.

What is it?

The Great American Book Drive is a national campaign to collect used books through large-scale community events for the benefit of worldwide literacy initiatives.

How Does it Work?

Community groups and businesses host book drives to support local, national, or international literacy programs. Better World Books takes the collected books and turns them into funds for our nonprofit partners by harnessing the power of the online marketplace.

How Do I Join?

Lead a community-wide effort to promote reuse and your organization will transform one of the most abundant items in American households—used books—into a force for good. Go to the Great American Book Drive website for more information.
