Book Sorting:
We need your help sorting books donated to us from the community. These volunteers assess book quality and then place the book into the appropriate age range (by interest, not reading level):
0-3 years old
4-6 years old
7-9 years old
10-12 years old
Book Prep:

This process involves:

- Cleaning the outside of the donated books with wipes to remove dust or sticky spots
