Lifetime Literacy Foundation

Virtual Book Warehouse

 

Literacy programs throughout the country continue to benefit from our Book Overrun Program, a.k.a. the Virtual Book Warehouse whereby selected titles are provided for distribution for the Lifetime Literacy Foundation programs and initiatives nationwide. With the enormous support from publishing companies, we have been able to assist schools, organizations, libraries and other groups with necessary book donations to improve access to books and improve literacy.

The intention of the Lifetime Literacy Foundation is to develop opportunities for individuals, families, and organizations to receive books who might not otherwise be able and to promote literacy. The publishers who participate in this program agree or have already 'overrun' their books while on press and allow books to be purchased for the production cost of the material. Corporate sponsors and/or other benefactors are then able to purchase the books, usually at a low-cost of $1-1.50 per book for distribution in our programs. Our current title selection committee consists of literacy professionals nationwide.

The goal of the Lifetime Literacy Foundation in 2008 is to select up to twenty titles and to distribute five to ten thousand copies of each title to literacy programs and libraries in the United States.

We appreciate the generous support of collaborating publishing companies and the generous benefactors who help to support our programming. We look forward to expanding our initiatives and continuing to give the gift of literacy.
