What is Call Number?     

Call Number is a library-inspired book subscription box that celebrates contemporary Black literature and authors of the African Diaspora. Curated by a real librarian, this subscription service will help you build your own collection of quality Black literature. Every three months, a box will be delivered to your door that contains a book along with a custom spine label and catalog card for your organizational purposes. You'll also receive a few bookish and library-related items that pertain to that box's book and theme.
