The Dayton Literary Peace Prize Fly with the Doves Book Circle was formed to allow the DLPP to donate winning and nominated books to schools, universities, and libraries. With memberships beginning at $25.00, supporting members provide the funding to share these powerful works of literature both locally and around the world.

In 2019, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Fly with the Doves Book Circle completed the collection of DLPP books for the National Library at Sarajevo and provided copies of David Wood’s What have We Done to schools participating in the Author Series in September.
