Since the book donation process began in November 2012, Hocking College has donated 2,134 books to Better World Books. This is a literacy book drive that transports the collected books to various worldwide and nationwide literacy projects as well as selling other books donated to fund the transportation of the books they actually use in literacy work.
Students have been working in the warehouse this summer hauling packed boxes of books to the warehouse for shipment. There have been 94 boxes of books donated, which are around 50 pounds each - 4,700 pounds of books!
