Who can request these free books?
Non-profit (U.S. only) organizations, institutions, commissions, agencies, etc.
How many copies can my non-profit ask for?
There is no limit on quantity, but
note that books are packed 36 per carton,
so we can't ship fewer than 36 copies.
Please request only the number of cartons
(see chart below)
that will cover the amount you need in the immediate future.
Extra copies can be saved or passed along to others,
while additional cartons as needed are only a phone call away.
How long does it take to receive the books?
Books are normally shipped by UPS within two days of receipt of your request.
Transit time depends on your distance from Ypsilanti, Michigan, where
the books are stored. It ranges from approximately a day within the
immediate area, to three days for the East Coast, and a week for the
West Coast. Allow some extra time for unanticipated delays.
