Dear AUTHORS, SEND US YOUR BOOKS
Fenabook welcomes book donations from authors near and far. Independently and traditionally published authors are invited to share their work with new readers while helping raise funds for local charities.
If you would like to contribute a book or arrange a larger donation, please contact us before mailing.
We welcome:
New and pre-owned books
Clean, dry, complete and readable copies
Books with gentle wear or inscriptions
Distinctive reads, enduring classics and international discoveries are especially welcome
We cannot accept:
Mould, mildew or signs of pests
Significant water damage
Strong or persistent odours
Heavy stains or soiling
Missing pages or unreadable text
Books falling apart beyond reasonable handling
Every book is individually considered. Not all donated books will be listed for sale, but each will be thoughtfully redirected, donated or responsibly recycled.

Cover a cost
Shipping is one of Fenabook’s largest expenses. Your contribution helps offset those costs—from sending Sponsored Book Bundles to helping keep shipping affordable for readers. It also helps with packaging, website fees and payment processing.
Choose any amount. Every contribution helps keep the books moving and allows more funds to reach our charitable beneficiary.
Contributions support Fenabook’s operations. Fenabook cannot issue charitable tax receipts.
