How To RSVP

To RSVP for the Fall Book Swap, simply click the button below and fill out a brief form with your name, contact information, and the children you'll be bringing. This helps us prepare for a fun and organized event, plus you'll earn 3 free book swap credits for each child aged 0-18 when you RSVP!

Swappable Books

The Fall Book Swap is all about sharing the joy of reading with children and teens, so we’re focusing on books for ages 0-18. You’re welcome to bring a variety of children’s books, including board books, felt/fabric books, picture books, early chapter books, graphic novels, and young adult novels.

 

Please ensure the books are in good condition and suitable for young readers. While we appreciate all types of literature, this event is specifically for children's and teens' books, so we kindly ask that you do not bring adult books for the swap.
