Our book-sharing program is based in the Arthur D. Ingalls Center (144 High Street, Farmington).

Volunteers accept and sort donated books from schools, libraries, and individuals. 

Books are distributed in the community through free bookshelves and giveaway events.

Free Bookshelves 

Teams of volunteers stock shelves with free books in 15 different locations, including doctor’s offices, food pantries, and nursing homes.

Contact us if you would like to host a bookshelf

Events

We can provide free books to organizations for events and occasions such as book swaps, last day of school, summer camps, community meals, or warming/cooling centers.
