World Book Night USA 2013 extends giver deadline to January 25!


Armacost Library is again signed up to be a pick-up location for World Book Night USA (WBN-USA). This means givers can choose Armacost Library as a location to receive their free WBN books to give away.

What do you need to do to be a book giver through WBN? Select 3 books you have personally read, choose the location where you intend to distribute books, and submit an application through WBN’s official site by Friday, January 25, 2013.

This year, groups of 10 or more individuals are encouraged to send a single application by emailing a proposal at April23@WorldBookNight.org. Please include the following information in your group proposal:

1.       Top three book choices OR why you would like a selection of several titles.
2.       Where do you intend to give away the books?
3.       To whom do you intend to giveaway books to?
4.       Why do you want to give books away?
5.       Why do you want to give the books out as a group? How many givers are in your group?

Through WBN, book givers pledge to distribute books on April 23, 2013. For additional information about World Book Night, please contact Melissa Cardenas-Dow, Outreach Librarian, at Melissa_Cardenasdow@redlands.edu or 909-748-8089.
