School Wishlists & Events

Do you have a dream list of books for your school library?  If not we can help curate a wish list that can be registered with Red Lion Books and uploaded to our website.  It can then be shared with benefactors, ex pupils, current parent committees and any other bodies who may wish to gift books to your library. If you have a book related event we can manage book sales for you via our website, providing school discounts.
