Book Forward is a dedicated team that works with libraries or friends of libraries.

We help libraries sell their donated items online.By selling online, it helps libraries raise a lot more

funding than traditional library book sales. We handle the whole process of selling online, so

there is minimal work on your side.We provide a very user-friendly tool to help libraries

find valuable items.

Who are we?

You find valuable items easily with our portable scanner. *You ship the scanned items to us with free shipping & free

USPS pickup. *We manage the whole selling process.You can track the sales status of each item through our

web site.You receive payment from us for the successful sales.

(* For libraries in certain locations, we will come to scan and pickup the items on-site)

What is the process?

There is zero up-front cost and no expense from you.We pay for the shipping of items.We give you the portable scanner at no charge.Only when an item is sold successfully, then we charge a

small commission and fee.

Zero up-front cost

15% commission from the final selling price of the item.$0.75 fixed fee per item that is sold.For on-site scanning and pickup, there will be an

additional $0.55 per item that is sold.Again the commission and fee only applies to items that

are sold.For items that are unsold, there is no charge at all.

“I wanted to tell you how impressed the Friends of the Rancho Bernardo Library are with you organization Almost all of the books have been in non-fictioncategories that in the past we either did not accept as donations or did not sell at any of our sales. I anticipate a continuing relationship with Book Forward.”

Dick Luehring, PresidentFriends of the Rancho Bernardo Branch Library
