Give a book.
Grow a community.
We’re accepting gently used books for Read & Rabbit's shelves to help everyone enjoy books and to foster a sacred space. The sacred space is you - we also hold events to connect people, encourage their creativity & empower them to be their best selves, be kind to themselves and to others.
Books Wanted
We want your preloved books which still have a keen market:
Books should be complete with all their pages and any jacket, clean, dust free, stickers neatly removed from the front and undamaged (unless very slight wear). Books should not be written in but can have an inscription or a limited amount of underlining.
​
We'd love art, photography and other coffee table books. Trains/railways books are great too. Modern ‘How to’ books as well as modern psychology/self help are brill, as long as the information is still relevant and useful for today’s world and published post 2000.
If we have too many of a certain book or just don’t think we will be able to find a new home for it, we may decline your kind offer for that reason. Books for children and young adults or cookery books are no longer accepted.
