DONATING TO BOOK AID (AUSTRALIA)
Book Aid (Australia) seeks to help meet this need by collecting and distributing books and bibles to areas of need overseas
The Books We Send We try to send the very best books overseas as well as tailoring collections to meet individual needs and requests. Essentially all donated books are sorted between books for theological libraries and books for Christian Bookshops. Consignments are selected and sympathetically matched according to doctrinal and denominational factors.		Ideally only the very best books are sent overseas
The Books We Need We need a variety of Christian Books and Bibles. We send to a variety of sources including libraries, missions, schools, Christian bookshops and books for individual Christian workers. We particularly need: Bibles in Good Condition especially King James Version Bible Commentaries Christian Doctrine Study Guides - Unused Books for Children		Fitzroy Falls Sorting Area
Some Books We Do Not Send All donated books in the first instance are earmarked for overseas. We try to avoid dated material including daily devotionals such as Daily Bread. Some Christian magazines and periodicals likewise. Cult material, aberrant "Christian" books will not be sent. This includers more clearly cultic material such as produced by Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventists and Roman Catholic sources as well as much current extreme charismatic, word of faith, prosperity gospel material (Benny Hinn, Marilyn Hickey, Kenneth Copeland, Joel Osteen etc) We do not send books in poor condition and books sent for distribution in retail outlets are expected to be in at least very good condition. Publisher remainders in bulk are not shipped and as a rule we avoid CD's or DVD's which fall more into the entertainment frame. The final decision on the content with any overseas shipment rests with Book Aid (Australia)		Books sold through Christian Books Australia Duplicate, older or more specialist books not required overseas are sold or exchanged through Christian Books Australia This assists with costs and our ability to provide more suitable material
