Book donations from individuals, publishers, and institutions help us develop a high-quality inventory from which they can meet the needs of theological schools around the world.

• Publishers can donate inventory, including overstock items.

• Institutions can pass along duplicate copies or entire collections that no longer serve their own programs.

• Individuals can donate books from their personal theological libraries. 

If you are interested in supporting us with a donation, don’t look at Theological Book Network as a way to clean out old, unwanted books. Rather, think about which books have had a lasting impact on your own formation. Consider how your books could breathe new life into Majority World school libraries, and how they have the power to shape tomorrow’s church leaders. Consider what kind of legacy you would like your library to have.

Your donation helps sustain our mission. Our staff works hard to acquire, curate, and process the right books for the right places. 

We then do the increasingly difficult work of managing overseas shipping, ensuring that these materials arrive at their new homes safely. 

In many cases, we leverage economies of scale to lower shipping costs and maximize impact. Shipping a 20’ container (10 pallets) or a 40’ container (20 pallets) allows us to serve a group of key partner schools in a region, as well as dozens of smaller schools. In 2024, we shipped containers like these to Nigeria, South Central India, and Northeast India.
