Books for the Planet is a division of Quest Living Network, a non-profit corporation
We collect and recycle used books in 5 US cities. Items donated to Books for the Planet are used to build libraries overseas and for domestic educational and literacy programs.
We partner with individuals, schools, organizations, companies and government agencies to inform about and contribute to community based development.

Why are there not enough books for these children?

Here at Books for the Planet we believe that books are a sacred part of our lives. We can all remember the book we read most as a child. Many people would have a difficult time deciding which is their favorite. Books become a part of who we are.
Books don't have a "best use" date -- they never expire. There is always someone else who can use and enjoy the books that we are done with. We try to find those people.
We started as a simple recycling project and we have grown in to a nonprofit with a
passion for saving the planet and the people we share the planet with.
