tamsam6 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 I'd like to know where to donate English books, such as complete trilogy sets, novels, etc. Is there a Prison reading library? Not looking to make any money from this Hundreds of books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growe237 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 You could donate to AUA if you’re in Chiang Mai or to your local library. I donate mine to Lamphun library although I will admit the library doesn’t seem to be used much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drumbuie Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 The British Women's Group runs a second hand book stall upstairs in the Royal Oak, Sukhumvit 33/1; the proceeds are donated to selected good causes in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTXR Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I donate books to the Neilson Hayes Library in Silom in Bangkok. They sell at their annual book sale. Sometimes I just give old books to one of the used book stores in Bangkok. The ones they don't want to try to sell, they just put on a "Free Books" table to attract customers.

BangkokHank Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I once donated hundreds of wonderful books to the old AUA library in Bangkok before they moved to their new location. Many of the books I wanted to keep, but I just didn't have the space for them. So I thought that giving them all to a single library would allow me to access my books in the future should I wish to revisit them. When AUA moved into its new premises, I assumed they would take their library with them. When I visited the new location, I found that they hadn't. So I asked them what they had done with all the books. They said they sold them! This infuriated me, as I could have sold them myself, except that I wanted to maintain access to them while sharing them with others. I still haven't forgiven them for this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChumpChange Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Not sure if the Siam Society would be interested, but could try them: https://thesiamsociety.org/facilities/library/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
