We are curating build a lending library to give prospective applicants and Peace Corps invitees resources about service as seen through the eyes of RPCVs. We have a dozen books already and would like to get to 25 by the end of the academic year.

While our wish list is posted on Amazon, we also encourage you to consider ordering books from a local book shop such as Schuler Books (Okemos) or Hooked (Lansing). If you prefer to donate and have us handle the purchasing, please visit our online giving link!

Please email Joy Campbell, MSU's recruitment supervisor, at joycamp(at)msu.edu with any questions!
