Overview

The Reuse First Division collects tons of unwanted books to help fund literacy initiatives locally, nationally and around the world. We have raised over $13 million dollars for global literacy by capitalizing on the value of so-called “no-value books.” Whether you are an individual, student group, library, or bookstore, we have a program that is perfect for you.

As a for-profit social venture, Better World Books’ success is measured by the positive impact that we make in addressing specific social issues; for us, that issue is literacy. Our collected books benefit four major nonprofit literacy programs as well as 80+ other literacy-based nonprofits.

We don't just support global literacy, we make it free and easy for you to get involved.

We make it FREE by supplying everything you need—from collection bins and posters to shipping cartons. We even cover the shipping costs to get the books to our warehouse.

We make it EASY by providing you with support and guidance throughout the entire process. Our Account Reps are ready to help you get the most out of your efforts.
