As a teacher I know how expensive school supplies and books are. This morning I thought I would share companies which offer FREE BOOKS FOR TEACHERS. If you know of other resources for teachers, please leave me a comment and I will add them to this list. If you’re like me, you can use all the free resources you can fine.
Complimentary Books from Half Price Books for Teachers
Half Price Books will consider donation requests from 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations and educators that focus on literacy, the environment, or education. Once approved, someone will respond via the email address provided in your completed form. Donations of books and media can only be fulfilled in markets where we operate. Pick-up at an HPB store or facility is required. For a full list of our stores, please visit Our Stores page. Learn more here.
Free Braille Books and Resources –
The Braille Books Program provides blind children a free Braille book every month from a popular children’s reading series.
Since 1997, more than 330 titles from popular children’s reading series have been distributed to thousands of blind children. Last year, the program provided more than 45,000 Braille books to blind children and classrooms across the country.
Through the Braille Books Program, blind children can discuss the newest book or magazine with their classmates and build their very own collection of books from popular children’s reading series, just like their sighted friends.
