Jersey City Free Books is a resource for students and serious readers. We cannot receive “light” fiction — Mysteries, Thrillers and Romances — or Self-help titles, cook books or children’s books. Since they can’t be used by current students, text books over three years old are not accepted, either. We also can’t take damaged books, or encyclopedias,  Computer books can’t be more than a couple of years old.

Students and other serious readers in your community urgently need these books: solid recent non-fiction, including college text books less than three years old and recent quality Fiction. Jersey City Free Books can use books on history, biographies of historical figures (not celebrities), dictionaries, language learning books and media, computer books less than three years old, recent technical and scientific books and books on photography or art.

Comic books, Graphic Novels, video and game DVDs are great for our flea market fundraisers.

Jersey City Free Books is very happy to get old black and white photos — snapshots.

Tropical fish magazines, bird magazines and pet magazines are great. Unfortunately, Jersey City Free Books can’t take any other periodicals.

Unfortunately we don’t have a vehicle and so are not able to pick up books.

If you are bringing  a quantity of books, they need to be packed  spine up in boxes that you can leave.  The boxes for copy paper work great.  We cannot accept a large number of books in garbage bags, loose or in containers that have to be returned to you.

Here’s a Link to a PDF of a flyer for Jersey City Free Books. If anyone can print some out and then post them at school, work, the neighborhood, whatever, that would be great. If it’s possible to print a few extra and to bring them to Jersey City Free Books for us to hand out, WUNDERBAR!
