Bright Light Books VISTA
 
 
 
We currently stock 35 bookcases that are located in area businesses, government buildings, and Palmer and Wasilla schools. The bookcases are located in places frequented by the general public and by students. The books are free and need not be returned. Recipients include those of all ages, genders, and reading levels, with a focus on providing books to children and young adults. We also ship books to rural villages located off the road system where access to books can be both limited and expensive.
