Eco-Libris special gift offer for the holidays: trees + book stickers + holiday greeting card

We would like to remind you about special offer for the holidays: trees + stickers + beautiful holiday greeting card.

It's very simple - plant trees to green the books your loved ones read. We will send them a beautiful holiday card and Eco-Libris stickers to display on their books' sleeves. Just change the shipping address on the PayPal payment page to the address of the gift receiver (or send us a separate email to info@ecolibris.net with the details) and we will take care of the rest!

The holiday greeting cards we send are made by Doodle Greetings (see picture above). Not only these cards come with a beautiful design, but they are also eco-friendly - printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper and are made chlorine-free and acid free. This is a good fit with Eco-Libris stickers, which are also made of recycled paper!

This is also very affordable gift offer, starting from $6.50 for 5 trees/stickers and a holiday gift card! $25, for example, will get you 25 trees, 25 stickers and a beautiful holiday gift card. Interested? go to our holiday gift page.

Last but not least, if you buy books this year as gifts for family and friends (and maybe even yourself), we have some ideas on how to make your gift more sustainable. Check out our 10 recommendations on how to green your book gift this holiday season.

Eco-Libris: Promoting green reading!

Eco-Libris is collaborating with Bookswim in an holiday campaign!

We are happy to announce on a collaboration with BookSwim (http://www.bookswim.com), the premier online book rental service!

BookSwim, established June 2006, is the first full-service online book rental service lending you paperbacks and hardcovers, Netflix-style, directly to your house, without the need to purchase. Whether it's new releases, bestsellers, or classics, they have something for everyone, with free shipping both ways! Read your books as long as you want — no late fees! Even choose to purchase and keep the titles you love!

Now BookSwim is offering virtual gift cards which are the perfect gift for those who love to read. A tree will be planted with Eco-Libris in honor of every gift purchased. We had done it with BookSwim last year and we're happy to partner again this year to green up their gift cards.

BookSwim are also giving incentives to customers to purchase gift cards between now and December 31, including a $5 gift card to be used by you for every $50 gift card purchased. Similarly, for every $100 gift card you buy, you will receive your own $20 gift card. Additionally, 2 lucky winners will receive a $299 Sony Blu-Ray Disc Player. One entry for every gift card purchase. Check it out at https://www.bookswim.com/gift.html

BookSwim is a great service and as a rental service it also has green qualities, similar to those of libraries due to the fact that it helps to maximize the use of every copy that is already printed. You can read more on BookSwim and the environment here: You can read more at: http://www.bookswim.com/media_kit_vision.html#theEnvironment

So don't forget to check out BookSwim's gift cards - it's a great affordable (and green!) gift for the holidays for every book lover.

New Partner: Process Press is Planting Trees and Taking Names

More cool stuff coming from SoCal. What brings together Sex Machines, Satanic Metal and The Source Family? They're all part of the catalog of Process Press, a collaboration of West Coast publishers Adam Parfrey of Feral House, and Jodi Wille of Dilettante Press, and one of the most interesting independent trade publishing houses out there.

In partnership with Eco-Libris, Process will now plant a tree for every book that is ordered directly through their website. Each book will come with a sticker from Eco-Libris to remind you of the tree planted for this book.

They also have a cool holiday promotion:

Buy two Process or Feral House books, and get a third book *free*, from now until December 24th.

So, let’s say you want the holy trinity of The Source, Eye Mind, and Moondog, for your Uncle Bob.... Or maybe a Feral fix of the bestseller Dark Mission: The Secret History of Nasa, the super saucy Hollywood Hellfire Club, and Kim Jong Il's Ministry of Truth...

If you order directly through the website, you'll save 1/3 off the retail price.

Check 'em out here:

http://www.processmediainc.com

http://www.feralhouse.com

Here's how it works: order two books with a credit card from the website. As soon as you place the order, send a separate email (to info@feralhouse.com ) with the title of the third book you would like to be sent to you (the third book must be the same price or lower than the others). Then all the books will be sent together, within 1-2 days. Every book will be balanced out by planting a tree with Eco-Libris.

So take advantage of these great offers, support eco-conscious independent publishing and discover the exciting world of Process this holiday season.

Yours,
