CoPP | PPLS | DONATING | Book Donations to Rotary

[Edited extract from public address]

Got books you no longer need? You can drop them off at our Albert Park and Port Melbourne Libraries. 

Donated books are collected by Rotary, who carefully sort and sell them to raise funds for local charities and Albert Park College. 

The Rotary Book Program has been making a difference in the community for over 23 years. It began at Albert Park Primary School, with the very first weekend sale raising more than $20,000. Since then, Rotary's second-hand book sales have raised over $850,000 to support local initiatives and literacy programs.

What to donate?
  • Please consider only donating books that you would purchase or give to a friend. If books are damaged, it's also best to recycle them directly. Please don't drop off textbooks or encyclopedias as they frequently need to be recycled.
Please note: If you're donating a large number of books (especially in boxes), we kindly ask that you deliver them directly to:
Albert Park College reception.
83 Danks St, Albert Park.

This small gesture makes a big difference by helping the volunteers avoid heavy lifting and reducing the need for extra transport. 

Through your donations, Rotary continues to promote literacy, education and community wellbeing – one book at a time.

Thank you for supporting your community!
