UPDATE on 12/1/2023 - We are accepting requests and will fulfill them as quickly as we can, however, we cannot guarantee books will be provided or will arrive before winter break.
We are doing our best to fulfill requests as quickly as possible. Thank you for your patience!
Teacher Book Request Form
Hello! Are you a teacher in the Philadelphia area in need of books for your classroom? Complete the form below and Philly Bookshelf will search our inventory to see if we have a new or lightly used copy of a specific book and/or a box of random books for your grade level.
This service is free and available to teachers at schools in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Please note that Philly Bookshelf will do its best to assist you with fulfilling your request for books. However, because we rely on the general public to donate these specific items, we cannot guarantee that your request will be completed at all or within a specific time frame. The more time you provide before a deadline and the more common the book, the greater the likelihood that your request will be fulfilled.
Let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to working with you!
