How to donate your books

Are your children's old books taking up space on your shelf?

Donate the titles they've outgrown to Little Modern Reader and we’ll ensure they find their next happy home.

We gladly accept any of the following:

  • Quality picture books suitable between ages 0-8
  • Bilingual Picture Books (in any language)

Sadly, we cannot accept the following:

  • Board Books
  • Disney books
  • Magazines
  • Happy Meal books

As we aim to provide books of a good condition and quality, please kindly ensure your books meet the following criteria:

Donations may be eligible for store credit depending on the quality and resale potential of the book. Please make sure to let us know if you are interested in receiving store credit for your donation. 

Sometimes after receiving a book, we may decide that it is not suited for sale at Little Modern Reader. When that happens, the books will be passed on to a not-for-profit organisation or to the local community centre to ensure your books still end up in good hands!

Please note we do not offer pickup and books need to be dropped off at 22-36 Mountain St, Ultimo, Sydney.  A loading dock is available for large quantities. 

To arrange a donation, please send photos to hello@littlemodernreader.com.au. 

 

 

*Little Modern Reader reserves the right to refuse any donations if they do not meet the criteria above.
