Book Crossings is an international program whose members tag books and then release them into the “wild” to be enjoyed by others. It’s easy to track your book’s journey online:
Go to www.bookcrossing.com
Step 1: Label - Register your book and print out a label with a BookCrossing ID number. This ID number lets you track your book wherever it goes—like a passport!
Step 2: Share - Leave your labeled book where it can be picked up and enjoyed by others, who will then log where they found, read and released it. Favorite release spots include: vacation rentals, coffee shops, train stations or a park bench.
Step 3: Follow - See where your book goes and who reads it! When your book is “caught” the other reader can enter the ID number on the Book Crossings site, and journal about where it was caught, who read it, and then where it is released again.
