Do you have books sitting unread on your shelves? Reroute them to people who have limited access to books.

Bring on the Books, known as BOB, is a student-run literacy nonprofit organization that has rerouted 95,000+ physical and digital books since 2007. BOB uses a web app to directly connect people who have gently-used books to their nearest local organizations.

Our Mission

Bring on the Books aims to reroute gently-used books by connecting people who have books to those who have limited access to them.

Problem

Solution

BOB reroutes gently-used or new books by directly connecting people to their nearest local organizations, schools, and nonprofits.
