Volunteers are asked to help with unpacking and sorting the many books we have donated to Borderline Books from various sources.
The books are stamped and counted as they come in, and then shelved in the appropriate section.
Prison Project
Our prison project also needs people who can learn the process of picking and packing books for prisons up and down the country.
Accuracy is essential, as is absolute confidentiality.
We need to build up the prison team as demand is rocketing – we have already given more than 17,000 books to 116 prisons this year.
