Save money and support the island community by shopping at Bookworks.

Every time your purchases reach $200, you will receive a $10 coupon to go toward your next purchase, and 1% of the total purchase will be donated to the non-profit organization you have chosen. There is no cost to you and no card to carry.

How does it work?

  • Whenever you buy something at Bookworks, tell the bookseller your ID number, and your purchase will be recorded on your account. When ordering via our website, enter your ID number in the comments section on the order page.
  • There are no fees and you won't need to carry a card.
  • The register automatically tracks your purchase totals. When your accumulated balance reaches $200, your $10 coupon will print with your receipt.
  • Bookworks will periodically donate the value of 1% of your purchases to the community organization that you've selected. 
  • Your tally does not expire, but coupons expire after 90 days. (Please hold on to your coupon until you redeem it. There will be no duplicate record of your coupon. Also, your coupon must be used in full, as you will not receive change from it.)
 
Who are our Non-Profit partners?
  • Friends of Nantucket Public Schools
  • Nantucket Lighthouse School
  • Nantucket New School
  • Nantucket Atheneum
  • Sustainable Nantucket
  • Nantucket Historical Association
  • Boys & Girls Club
  • Children's House
  • WCAI/WNAN, the Cape and Islands NPR station
  • General Fund (for myriad donations at Bookworks' discretion)

Please note that this is a completely voluntary pilot program. We selected the first year's partners based upon their missions and our relationships with them.  You may change your non-profit at any time, and we may add or shuffle our affiliations in the future as we see fit. Thank you for your understanding and support, and thank you to our non-profit partners for their enthusiasm.

 
How do you sign up?
 
Register at Bookworks or complete the sign-up form  and drop it off, fax it to 508-228-2380, or copy and email the info to nantucketbookworks@gmail.com. You will receive a note confirming that your Bookworks Benefits membership has begun. Your telephone number will be used as your ID number (it's unique and easy to remember). All information will be kept in confidence.
 
It takes a few minutes to enter the information properly, so please sign up as soon as possible so your holiday sales will start building your benefits!  During busy times we will not be able to set up new accounts "on the fly" while people are waiting in line. Thanks for your understanding as we get this beautiful ball rolling.

**We very much hope that this program will encourage islanders to shop locally. There are no guarantees it will work as well as we want it to, so we must reserve the right to change the terms of the program at our discretion after our first year's experiment. As always, thank you for supporting your favorite bookshop on Broad Street!**
