Thank you to all of you, members, customers and community members who donated books.  You all helped to make the 2019 Book Sale a great success!

Why do we collect and sell used books?

The AAUW Wheaton-Glen Ellyn Branch’s main fundraiser is the annual AAUW Used Book Sale. Each year, we sell more than 35,000 volumes to members of the community and visitors from surrounding states. Proceeds fund fellowships and grants nationally and COD scholarships locally.  AAUW Wheaton-Glen Ellyn Branch, NFP is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization.  AAUW stands for American Association of University Women, a national organization founded in 1881.
