Where Books = Opportunity

Bernie’s Book Bank provides free, high-quality books to children in under-resourced communities across the U.S. Why? Because access to books is the single most important predictor of a child’s long-term success.

From first through sixth grade, each student receives a bag of 8 books annually, helping them build their own home library and laying the foundation for a brighter future.

“Newcastle carts allow us to be much more precise when doing inventory of thousands of books.  Now one person can do the job that used to take several people and now we can improve our database out on the floor in real-time.”
