McGill Library Holiday Book Box for Centraide

Published: 14 October 2021

Help the McGill Library raise money for Centraide of Greater Montreal by giving to a charity that supports nearly 350 agencies and projects in the Greater Montreal Area with the aim of breaking the cycle of poverty and social exclusion.

This year, the McGill Library is offering a one-time Holiday Book Box for a minimum donation of $5 (all proceeds go toward Centraide).


How it works

Register for a box and our librarians will create a customized book list for you based on your preferences. A book from our library will be checked out to your account as part of your box. Also included will be goodies and treats to help you destress this exam/holiday season.

How to participate

Register by completing the form at: https://forms.office.com/r/yshYzFFXNF.

The registration form will be open until Friday, November 5th at 5:00pm Eastern OR until there are 100 registrants.

A minimum donation of $5  must be received by 11:59pm on November 14th, 2021. Pick-up of the Holiday Book Boxes will be arranged the second week of December 2021.
