Education Aid

Books

The programme consists of free provision of books and literature to schools, universities and other institutions in developing countries for use as study and reference material. We collect from schools, universities, professional institutes, libraries, hospitals, publishers, companies and individuals.

Journals and Periodicals

A lot of people in the academic and professional fields subscribe to journals and periodicals. Very often people don't get the time to read most of the literature and simply put it on one side to read later. Others having read something don't need to keep it, but don't want to throw it away either. Libraries also have duplicate copies and runs of journals surplus to their needs. At Education Aid we collect such surplus literature and send it to overseas institutions that cannot afford such publications or simply are unaware of them. Runs of old journals contribute to useful reference material.

In addition to the general public libraries, there are many institutional, professional and specialist libraries in the U.K They also accumulate unnecessary material, such as sample and review copies sent to them by writers and publishers, older editions being taken over by new editions and multiple copies of publications

All such materials useful for overseas institutions and their students. Publishers and Booksellers also give us their surplus books.
