The SKS of the UK

Yesterday, I visited Book Aid Ranskill in Doncaster and bought 31 new/second-hand books for £34.05, effectively doubling the number of Christian books I have in York. I spent over 3 hours browsing and didn't even cover half the place!

What's more, all proceeds from the sale of books at Book Aid go towards providing Christian literature to less-privileged locations around the world. Soli Deo Gloria!

Shelves of books

More shelves of books

Even more shelves of books

    daph: yeah they have some really old/rare books as well - i had a hard time narrowing my shopping cart down to 31 books!

    charles: you can check out http://www.book-aid.org/

    unfortunately you can't browse/buy books from them online. you should definitely visit one of their outlets if you ever happen to be back in the uk though!
