Twice each year, the Book Project organizes a book fair where we offer for purchase used books in the areas of fiction, non-fiction, cookbooks, arts and crafts, history, biographies, memoirs and others. Proceeds raised from these book fairs are used by the Book Project to purchase new reference books such as atlases, dictionaries and children’s encyclopedias, which we include in our shipments of books to schools. Spouses (and their friends, if accompanied by spouses) can also visit the BP and purchase books; this is not just for staff only, please come and visit us.
