Bookstock Used Book & Media Sale

Used Book & Media Sale
April 21 – 28, 2013
at Laurel Park Place in Livonia, MI.

Gently used books, records, CDs, DVDs, and audiobooks.

All books and media at the sale have been donated. Receipts are given and donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.

Honorary Co-chairs: Rochelle Riley, Detroit Free Press Columnist and Neal Rubin, Detroit News Columnist

Bookstock, Used Book & Media Sale, is a community service project through which donations of books and media continue to provide enjoyment and knowledge. Proceeds from the sale support education and literacy projects in the Detroit metropolitan area and beyond.

The entire process of collecting and sorting gently used books and media, organizing and staffing the sale is 100% volunteer driven. This approach to recycling used books and media in order to raise money for education and literacy is what makes Bookstock a win-win endeavor for the community. All leftover books from Bookstock are donated to non-profits and charities in our community.
