Book Lovers Lane
Book Lovers Lane
About
Lifeline Canberra is proud to have opened up Book Lovers Lane within the Niche Markets at Fyshwick Markets.
This will be a permanent store filled with books, DVDs, CDs, puzzles, comics and more. The bookshelves and tables are filled with our usual Bookfair stock, which will be restocked daily – so please keep popping by to see what’s new!
This is not replacing our famous Bookfairs but rather a new venture to ensure we continue to support the community.
Just like our Bookfairs, all funds raised will go directly to our local Crisis Support Service 13 11 14.
It costs $26 to answer a life-saving call in our telephone crisis support centre. At Book Lovers Lane, this equates to around a handful of books, so every purchase is valuable.
As a small organisation, we rely heavily on the support of our warehouse volunteers, who have so generously given their time, support and expertise in getting Book Lovers Lane ready. There is so much that goes on behind the scenes, and we are very thankful for each and every one of them.
We look forward to sharing this new venture with the Canberra community.
Book donations are open from Saturday + Sunday, 10 am-2 pm.
Donation checklist:
- Clean, resalable books/items
- Books/items to be packed in boxes no more than 10 kg in weight
