Books with a Past: Book Bank
Compiling a classroom library is no easy task. We know that teachers want their students to have access to robust reading resources without breaking their own banks. That’s where Books With A Past comes in! Set up a classroom account with us so that others can donate funds toward your classroom library. Other people donate money, and you pick the books! Classroom accounts are free to set up and anyone can donate. Your accounts are already setup.
Books with a Past: Bookshelf Sale
The bookshelves are 8 feet tall, 36-39 inches wide and 6-12 inches deep. They're unfinished wood and have either 7, 8, or 9 shelves. The shelves are not adjustable.
Erin Matthews, owner of Books with a Past, is offering them for $75. Please contact her with interest.
