Community Drive for Books! Let's share!

Books!

Some of us may have piles of old books taking up space on shelves in our homes. The Shared Space encourages us to sort out those books once in a while, keep the ones that we would want to keep and share the ones we can share :)

A community book-drive spreads the joy of reading by providing libraries with quality literature, textbooks, magazines and helpful books.

We would be glad to accept books and other library-beneficial items from your home. We believe in re-using and re-purposing items and are open to suggestions and collaborations. Enriching the scope available books in our Space is one of the practical steps necessary to inspire a love of reading in our communities, neighbourhoods and country at large.

Kindly drop off any of the type of books in the description below to our office at M11 Regimanuel Estate, Community 18- Tema or contact us on 0503532228.

Each book received will be perused for its appropriateness in line with our core values and vision.
