This site has helped me tremendously in finding replacement copies and copies to fill in the missing books in series. Virtually everyone I have communicated with has shipped quickly or explained why they could not. I try to acknowledge all gifts on my friends page, however as the solo staff I am swamped and may have missed someone. I apologize if I have missed adding a donor to my friends page. Keep mooching, keep offering great titles, keep donating and READ as often as you can. : ) Lisa Hi to all, I just wanted to say our small community library is a BookMooch charity and as the solo library staff I must tell you all the BookMooch Community is awesome.

I sent an email using the 'suggest' button a few weeks ago but didn't get a response one way or the other. [I work at a small public college.] It is a much clearer page now; good work!

I would be happy to manage (and pay) for a mailing of a one page flyer to 200 or so small community libraries in the US. Does anyone have access to a list with contact names and addresses?

I know there are a few librarian on here that use this to provide more books for their small community libraries. Getting the word out to these librarians so that they can apply as a charity is another great thing I would like to see. I see alot of teachers using this to help supply there classroom with books as there schools have no libraries and the school are located in high poverty areas. I am working to send 160 books that I have traded for on here to a teacher in winterhaven, florida for a classroom of third graders who read at K-3 grade level and are in a high poverty area. So this website has been a bless for me and many others. thanks again, jeanne John, thanks that was a quick fix to the question I put out there earlier today.
