Our Mission
The East Bay Children’s Book Project helps build literacy by putting books into the hands of children who have little or no access to them. Working through individuals and organizations who help children in need, we have given out more than a million free books since opening our doors in May 2005.

Special Saturday Opening
We will be open for book giveaway: Saturday, 8/3 from 10 AM to 1 PM. For those who have never been here and those we haven’t seen for a while, here is a reminder of how we operate. 1. We are located at 2501 Harrison Street. Our door is the purple one on Harrison Street with our name painted on it. The church will be closed that day so the only entrance will be through that door. 2. Free parking should be available in the parking lot surrounding the church. Both the school and the church are closed that day so there should be adequate parking. 3. If you have not been here in the last 2 years, you will need to register before you get books. 4. EVERYONE must count the books they take and check out before they leave. 5. All books are free but we do accept donations to pay for operating expenses. 6.. We do set limits on the number of books you may take to make it fair for everyone. The limits on Saturday will be 50 books from the shelves and carts and 5 from the Hot Pick table. The Spanish books will be on the Hot Pick table. 7. Please bring bags or boxes to carry your books. 8. NO CHILDREN ALLOWED. Our insurance doesn’t cover it. We will reopen for our regular hours starting Tuesday, August 13th from 3:30 to 6 PM. We are open weekly Tuesday & Thursday from 3:30 to 6 PM during the school year. So, please come visit us. Look for the purple door with our name on it. It is on Harrison Street, just beyond Westlake Middle School. We share the parking lot with First Congregational Church and the school – come stop by! 🙂 Thanks, Ann & the book team P.S. Our best marketing tool is word of mouth – please tell your friends about us! The more the merrier! |
