TRUSTlibrary.org Setup Guidance

Thanks for looking into how to make your own FREE Trust Library. The aim is to help others get free books and then give them away so that we can all easily help each other have a nicer day! The key is to make the Library easy to spot using the most accessibly location while making the library look as stylish as possible using the resources you have. For starters we have created the website with documents to download to make it as easy as possible for you to improve your neighbourhood by creating a trust library. The best part is that you can make it however you want and show others what you made here. So to help you here are some pointers (essentially put books in boxes with posters and list the location on TRUSTlibrary.org)...

List yourself on the Volunteers page and then to chat with other volunteers to get the latest advice. http://www.webjam.com/TRUSTlibrary/volunteers

List your name & what you can 1. GIVE 2. WANT 3. Email Contact 4. Your Donation 5. Suggestions

EG I would put this...Ed Whyman

1. I want to volunteer and will promote this site on Facebook/Twitter

2. I want to make exciting collaborative artworks using recycled material.

3. http://www.twitter.com/whymandesign

4. I have subscribed to donate £9 a month and have set up a trust library using my unwanted books.

5. Add other things you want:)

6. I also can provide art to display in the shops. examples at at http://www.whymandesign.com

Please list the location of the Trust Library you are looking to make on the website and when it is made please take pictures and video's and link to it from the relevant Town page. (If no town page exists ask for one by commenting on the http://www.webjam.com/TRUSTlibrary/volunteers page.)

As a volunteer you can get feedback on what you are doing on Facebook and Twitter by joining this group https://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=348867089849 and follow http://twitter.com/TRUSTlibrary or use this #WEBiversity

Build your Library

Find a location and stick up the posters and signs there and around town so that others know where to go to find your library. Use recycled material such as cardboard boxes and modify/improve them by sticking posters on or painting them. Then put as many unwanted books as you can collect (after stamping them with the stamp

Get books

Use the people you already know to get books. Friends/family/collogues are the best contacts. At least one should know someone who is getting rid of books. If that is not successful then either call or walk in to your local charity shops and ask them if you can take any books that they can not sell away in exchange for a donation (You can get a lot of books for under £10 and if you can not afford that contact us and we can help). http://www.charityshops.org.uk or similar sites will give you the contact details for your local charity shops.

We are getting as many unwanted free books and give them away for free
with volunteers in 50 new shops that we are opening across the country
with a charity. (this is a new way to use items such as books that
charity shops can not sell [worth less than 50p] to enhance literacy
levels and community cohesion while saving books from being recycled).
Can you please forward this email on to the relevant people. We are
looking to use the books that charity shops send to be recycled/pulped
to help raise literacy levels in the UK (before the books can then be
sent aborad).

We are starting with these locations (but will roll our rappidly to 50
locations that ar elisted on the website) and were hoping we could
collaborate with you to create pop up community activities using your
volunteers in each of them?

(A) Portsmouth
(B) Redditch
(C) Sutton Coldfield
(D) Preston
(E) Harrow and Bromley

We are looking for..
Volunteers to run individual shops across the country
Unwanted books (other items) to give away
Logisitcs to deliver the goods to the shops
More empty locations to create free trust libraries.
Funding of course to purchase many books off charity shops.

Could we also create Trust Libraries in other locations you know about too?

Could you possibly supply books to do this (they can be any sort of
books especially books that were going to be pulped)? (We are looking
for the books to be delivered in boxes to the 50 different uk locations
across the country. We have collected donations and are able to cover
the cost of delivery and the wholesale book costs but would ideally like
to get the books for free as we are using them for a charitable aim
helping people read more (and therefore increasing your customer base)

If we can work with you this will give you great pr and exposure on high
streets and enhance your organisation. We are also looking for as many
unwanted books to be donated in these shops. Do you have any good
contacts for this.

ALSO Would it be possible to link us up with volunteer shop managers who
are interested in enhancing their neighbourhood with community projects?

We also created http://www.WEBiversity.org which may be of use to?
(would love to collaborate on this with others too:)

I am trying to get in contact with the other people to see if
organisations across the country could be interested in running some of
the 50 high street shops that we could end up managing. Can you suggest
anyone or any organisation

your knowledge online so everyone can share it...

Below is the generic email with more details (please forward this on)...

http://www.TRUSTlibrary.org enhance your work by creatinge 50 free Trust
Libraries in high street shops across the country with you (we are
working with a registered charity)? This will provide great outreach
opportunities...

We have been working on the best way to benefit your
great work with Trust Libraries and have found that we can boost
your educational and marketings aims while generating microdonations
that can fund more Trust Libraries so our collaborative success will
fund more success in a scalable manner that could sustain exponential
growth.

So...
Can we work with you to make a 21st Century version of the Carnegie
library (but 00's of them all over the place for free)?

We have trialled this and would love to work with you to expand the
proven TRUST Library concept using your great contacts to make it a
success. Can we work with you to provide free access to reading for all?
After successfully giving free books away at the British Library we are
hoping we can give free books away where you are. Do you want any free

Here are some points I email to everyone to help (though you probably
already have heard of this:).

A.
Empowering everyone to help everyone can be more valuable than money and
can be done cheeply/free by sharing or giving free items
(software/books) away. http://www.WEBiversity.org and
http://www.MUSTart.org are examples
of this.

B.
http://www.Traidmark.org is one example of how any funds can be spent
more efficiently by creating institutional innovation. This can be used
by anyone no matter how much money they have (especially as they use the
funds to spend them in the most creative way they can come up with so
they may not actually need any funds to create something good).
http://www.FREEtraid.com is one example.

C.
One great way to solve problems is to ask the person asking the question
(problem finder) if they know of the answer or if they can look into
solving it so they become the problem solver too:)

e.g.
1.
How can enterprise and innovation be improved and created
institutionally? http://www.Traidmark.org is one way to create
institutional innovation.

2.
How can anyone set up their own self sustaining innovation space?
http://www.BARcampBAR.org and http://www.FREEtraid.org both have
examples of how this can be done.

How else can everyone be A. Empowered to create innovative solutions so
social problems and B. Self sustain themselves by earning enough to live
and learn?

Ed http://www.whymandesign.com

TRUSTlibrary.org has been granted an unltd.org.uk award after being created by http://www.MUSTart.org and we are now looking to collaborate with other organisations to find locations to install FREE Trust Libraries so that anyone can take a Free book, read it then pass the book on to someone else (and then if they liked the experience help create the experience for others by donating more books to the Library and donating funds online so we can set up more FREE Trust Libraries).

Do you know of a location that would benefit from having Free books? Maybe a NHS Hospital, Doctors Surgery, Library, Town Hall, Community Centre, Religious Centre, Waiting Room... If so post a comment at http://www.TRUSTlibrary.org

Have you already created a Trust Library? Share it with others at http://www.TRUSTlibrary.org so more people can enjoy it.

Do you have unwanted books (or other items) that we can use to help others? Tell us about it at http://www.TRUSTlibrary.org and either create your own Trust Library or ask for help.

Do you know someone who would be pleasantly supprised if they were sent a free book through the post? Send them a book at http://www.TRUSTlibrary.org

Please Tweet this message so that anyone can 1. download free MUSTart.org and 2. create a FREE Trust Library.
