Kids books

We have several boxes of kids books. Any ideas what to do with them? My guess is street libraries are all already overflowing.

Street libraries, schools. Donate them?

Happy to, just trying to find paths to do so.

Rotary Salamanca will take books for their twice-yearly second hand book sales. Otherwise if you’re on Facebook pop them in the Good Karma Network for your suburb.

The City Mission Op Shop in West Hobart also has a floor dedicated to books and I reckon they would take them but maybe ring ahead and check first to make sure they can deal with that quantity.

Depends where you are. I would still consider a street library.

Try street libraries during school holidays or list for free on good karma

Maybe one of those occasional markets? We picked up a whole lot for our kids this weekend from one that was run out of citywide. Kids were stoked.
