American Book Drive Bins
American Book Drive and SMMEF have partnered together to raise money for SMMUSD school libraries! Franklin’s Blue Bin is located on Montana Avenue near the Kindergarten Gate.
Donate your used books, CDs and DVDs and tell your neighbors and friends about it, too! American Book Drive will find new homes for your donations and contribute a percentage of the proceeds to the Education Foundation in support of our school libraries. Make room on your shelves and support your library! American Book Drive (ABD) salvages tens of thousands of books from going unused or dumped into landfills every year. Instead, books that are donated are resold through 20 online marketplaces, at festivals and book fairs. ABD’s streamlined process of collecting, sorting and reselling books allows the company to raise the most money for its non-profit partners. ABD’s objective is to provide communities with an easy, green alternative to donating their used books, while supporting worthy causes. American Book Drive accepts all books, CDs and DVDs with the exception of encyclopedia sets.
