“I was made for the library, not the classroom. The classroom was a jail of other people’s interests. The library was open, unending, free.”

— Ta-Nehisi Coates, Between The World And Me

Why do I need a physical book?

You don't! This is a completely optional. E-books are great too (and available above as well as through the San Diego Library System)

Could you put the pickup locations to our parents and not to us?

This is the tricky part - we need to know where the books should go - so maybe you can check in with your parents about which option would be best and then fill out the form!

Please send me the pickup hour options!

We definitely will, once we know! Again, this is a work in progress, but most likely, we will have monthly "book drop day" where we go into the community, and just set up contact-less drop-off opportunities throughout the week at HTMM.

Maybe put a sports section.

Yes! Please feel free to provide recommendations through the Check-Out form! (Fiction? Nonfiction? Author recommendations?) You can also look at Goodreads and request a book that's not in our library!
