How BookSwap works

Find a book, agree on the details in chat, and hand it over in person. Here's each step.

How a handoff works

Decided before you say yes. Confirmed when it's in your hands.

01

Match

Someone near you has the book you want, or wants one of yours. You chat here, never on a personal number.

02

Agree

Pick a public meeting point. Where and when are agreed before either of you says yes.

Suggested meeting point
Colombo Public Library, front steps
Public, busy, and about halfway between you both.
03

Hand off

The receiver confirms the condition matches the listing. Then you rate each other, and it counts toward your badges.
