The CBC Calgary Reads Big Book Sale is our way of evening that out.
People purge their books, we sell them and the funds raised are used year round to support literacy programs, and get free books into the hands of kids who have none.
DONATE YOUR BOOKS
We cannot accept encyclopaedias, dictionaries, text books, Harlequin Romances, Reader’s Digest, cassettes, magazines or agendas.
