DONATE



As a volunteer-run organization, we rely on your generous donations. Your donations help us cover the costs of purchasing, packing, and shipping books to our readers. ​

​Please consider supporting us!

Support the USPS!

The United States Postal Service (USPS) is essential to Liberation Library’s work. Every month, we utilize USPS’s services to ship our boxes of books to incarcerated youth in a cost-effective way, and will even receive individual requests for books mailed to us through USPS.

While incarcerated young people use the USPS frequently, they have to use their own money to mail letters. And with COVID restricting in-person visits, communication with friends and family is more essential than ever. 

In order to support the USPS and our readers, we are asking for donations of sheets of stamps, so that we can give them to young people incarcerated across Illinois. 

Donations can be mailed to our offices: 
Liberation Library
​c/o In These Times
2040 N Milwaukee Ave
Chicago, IL 60647

Support our local
​bookstore partners

We pride ourselves on providing youth participants with the books of their choice. This requires that we maintain a fairly large inventory. Please help us to keep our most requested books in stock by donating to our local bookstore partners.

Mail in gently used books​
​from our catalog

We are currently only accepting donations that can be found in our catalog. If you have any of these titles in paperback, and they are new or gently used, you can mail them to us at our address:
