Book Trust Program Resources
Welcome Book Trust Managers and Teachers!
The magic of the Book Trust program takes place in the classroom. Each year, thousands of teachers and support team members facilitate book selection, ordering, and distribution in service of the Book Trust program.
The personal libraries curated by students are possible because of dedicated professionals like you!
With your guidance, each enrolled student will have an opportunity to spend $12 on books, six times throughout school year. This comes at no cost to students or their families. We thank you in advance for being good stewards of these funds and working to maximize all Book Trust has to offer.
Book Trust Ordering is Closed Until February
Book Trust will not cover the cost of any orders in December and January.
Book Trust ordering will resume in February, 2025.
If you have questions, please reach out to us at support@booktrust.org.

KEYS TO PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION
ORDER WINDOWS
Students will have six opportunities to order this school year. The order windows are September, October, November, February, March, and April
STIPENDS
For each of the six order windows, students will utilize $12 stipends. The stipend must be used by the end of each order window. Stipends do not transfer or roll over.
FLYERS
Digital flyers made specifically for Book Trust students will be available on the Book Trust website and in the monthly Book Trust Bulletin email. These are designed with students in mind and prices have been rounded to the nearest dollar to make choosing books easier.
ORDERS
Book Trust teachers place orders through Scholastic Book Clubs. All Book Trust orders must be placed on the Student Flyer Order tab.
