Join the Book Drive for Literacy to help support reading in our Arizona community.
From Oct. 5 to Nov. 2, 2026, ASU Library is collecting new or gently used books for a local school to help students build their own home libraries.
Each year in the United States, books are banned, challenged and removed from schools and libraries, directly affecting literacy rates and access to diverse, representative literature.
Books for all reading levels are welcome! Donate a new or gently used book in honor of Banned Books Week.
Drop-off Locations:
- Hayden Library: Level 1 lobby
- Design and the Arts Library: Information desk
- Downtown Phoenix campus Library: Next to the self-checkout station
- Polytechnic campus Library: Information desk
- Fletcher Library: Level 1
- Discovery Hall: Suite 112B
Or bring your book donations to one of the ASU Project Humanities event locations below!
