Borderline Books

Unverified non-profit organisation

Borderline Books collects unwanted books from publishers, libraries and individuals and redistributes them free of charge to refugees, former prisoners, victims of domestic violence, homeless people and others who have little or no access to books.

Many books come direct from publishers – frequently these are foreign language reading copies or slightly damaged books.

The travel company NEXUS is now giving us books that have been left on busses and trains and not claimed.

Other books come from individuals who are clearing their bookshelves.
