Bookmans' customers can donate their unused trade credit directly to support library needs within the district. The donation box is located at the store's check-out registers.
The idea originated from Lisa Martin, Coyote Trail Elementary librarian, in 2011. The support of Bookmans and their customers has generated approximately $2,400, to date, in trade credit to MUSD libraries. Librarians throughout the district have used the trade credit to add popular in-demand fiction to their collections, to replace well-loved but damaged or lost books, as well as add non-fiction and additional reference items.
