Discover Books General Information

Description

Provider of book recycling services intended to divert books from landfills, fund library sustainability and address the global problem of illiteracy. The company's services include recognizing the marketability of a selected title or genre through their proprietary software system and sorting out the collected books that are better suited to become donations to literacy-focused or community-based non-profit organizations, including libraries and schools, enabling book lovers, educational institutions and other reading communities to avail books and reading materials at a subsidized rate.
