Restorbuks is a bookstore revamping program held in Practical Shop, Los Banos, Laguna. The bookshop needed a revamp and to shy away from the earthy tones it had gotten trapped in. It needed to be fun and yet it needed a further appeal. We managed to clear out the shop, sort the books, and put them in a box before organizing them on their respective shelves. I volunteered to help this revamping program because the duties are just quite easy, plus, in just two hours of volunteering, you will be able to get three (3) books of your choice! I just had my first volunteer job in the morning before I went here so I was already kind of exhausted when I got here, but then, I already committed myself to this and I really love voluntary works and charity works! It makes me feel that in simple ways like this, I am able to pay forward the good deeds that I also receive from random people. There were tons of books, mostly really old, but still good. First, we clean the books by wiping it using rags and alcohol. And then, we sort it to book categories like romance, non-fiction, thriller, etc. Once sorted, we will place it to their respective shelves. This was really tiring but also fun at the same time. While sorting out the books, I was able to preview some good books. I am so glad that I've become part of this event! For a book lover like me, this is a magical 2-hour job, where I met like-minded people who love books and discussed the latest and greatest books. They say that if you have a book, you will never be alone because books are the portal to a place of magic. SHARE THIS:
