Great Book Swap - 4 September

JCU Library is hosting a Great Book Swap at the Townsville and Cairns campuses on 4 September 2019, Indigenous Literacy Day. The Great Book Swap celebrates reading and raises funds to support the Indigenous Literacy Foundation’s (ILF) purchase and supply of books and literacy materials to remote indigenous communities.

You are invited to help us with this fundraising activity by:

1. Donating books for the Book Swap – We will be accepting donations at both campus libraries from now until the Book Swap on 4 September. The Book Swap will be for books aimed at adults and excludes textbooks.

2. Donating directly to ILF via our event listing on the Great Book Swap website:

• Cairns
• Townsville

3. Coming to the Book Swap Event between 11.30am -1.30pm on 4 September (on the Library Lawns at both campuses) and donating a gold coin for a book, as well as enjoying some lunch provided by the Student Association.

We look forward to your participation in this event.

Please see the Indigenous Literacy Foundation’s website for more information about the organisation and how it is working to close the literacy gap.
