Partnerships

Peninsula Book Collaborative would love to partner with you!

Schools & Community Organizations

Field Trips: We offer field trips on weekday mornings (before noon). Students/preschoolers will be able to come into the store,  look at books, enjoy story-time and extension activity. All children receive one free book to take home for their home library. 

School Visits: For school visits, one of our vested volunteers will bring a few books, read 1-2 books to students, and the school/class will receive a copy of the book for their classroom

Fundraisers: To support our schools, we organize fundraising nights – choose a night and 20% of the proceeds will go back to the school. 

Wishlists: Fulfill a book wishlist for your classroom, school, or organization. With a dedicated list for your requested age range (we can create or you can provide), customers/community members can purchase a new book(s) for you and we will collect them for you.

You can also create an online list through our bookshop.org site where books can be sent directly to your school/home. 

You can also submit a wish list by filling out the Wishlist Program Form. We will provide you with a flyer that you can share with families (if desired) and we will promote the program on our website, on-site at Peninsula Books, and on social media. Books can be picked from the Daly City location.  

Author Events

Meets and Greets

What are ‘Meets and Greets’ ?

Meet & Greets are key local events that give local authors a chance to connect one-on-one with the community and generate interest for their literacy creation. 

These generally take place between 1:30-3:30 pm, and are an hour long.   

We promote these events with in-store book displays and posts on our website event calendar.  Additional promotions are the responsibility of the author. 

Week of Meet-and-Greet

We will provide an in-store display with the author’s name, a flyer displayed in the window with the event date and time,  books for purchase, and social media posts.  The author is responsible for other promotional materials such as  posters, radio and newspaper advertisements. 

Day of Meet and Greet

We will provide a table, water, pens, books. The author will be responsible for promotional materials.

 Schedule a Meet and Greet

To scheudule a ‘Meet and Greet’, please fill out the contact form above and we will be in touch. 

Please provide  some days that work for you when you fill out the form. 

Purchase of Books

We can get the book through Ingram or directly from the author. For self published authors, we  limit our purchase to a maximum of five books.

Please note and remember when you schedule your Meet and Greet event. We do not make reminder calls.

Book Launch Party!

Would you like to host a launch party for your new upcoming release?

Please fill out the contact form above and share a little about your book and the size of the event. We’ve found that most of these events do best when there is a group of followers or friends/family who support the event.

Take a look at our events page, which has both upcoming and past events. Community events, author talks, writing workshops, fields trips – it’s all there! We would love to collaborate with you and hear from you. Lets connect!
