EE’s ‘Bookery’ Opens its doors in Cape Town

Home | EE’s ‘Bookery’ Opens its doors in Cape Town

Donate books to the EE Bookery to stock school libraries across Cape Town.

School libraries in South Africa are in a desperate state. Only 7.23 % of public schools have functional libraries; 13.47% have a library space without books or a librarian; and a massive 79.3% do not have a library.

Equal Education (EE) is committed to addressing this issue under the banner of our ‘Campaign for School Libraries’. ‘The Bookery’, situated where Charly’s Bakery used to be (at 20 Roeland Street Cape Town) is the home of one branch of this campaign: the EE book drive.

For more information, please email thebookery@equaleducation.org.za, contact Themba on 021 461 4189 or just drop by in Roeland Street.

Please donate your favourite books in top condition!

About Equal Education

Equal Education (EE) is a youth-led mass democratic movement of learners, post-school youth, parents, teachers and community members who use mobilisation and public action, supported by careful research, to empower young activists and ensure equality in South African education. We are a leader in youth leadership development. Our campaigns are informed by the experiences of EE members and by policy analysis. We build understanding of the education system, while drawing attention to problems faced by schools and their communities. EE offers a new way to participate in the democratic system and bring change to education and society.
