Help me give my students important book protection for our amazing classroom library!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Carter's classroom raised $349

My Project

We are growing an amazing classroom library in my high school English class. So far, 360 books have been checked out! Some of them, though are starting to look a little worse for the wear. In addition, the table I have dedicated to housing our checked out books is running out of room.

Please help me provide book covers so that our books can continue to be loved safely, as well as a cart to easily house the checked out books.

My students LOVE our classroom library. Please help me treat our books with respect.
