Help Gulf Coast Libraries
Start your spring cleaning early and give a new home to all those books you've accumulated!

From the Operation Paperback website:

We recently received a request from a librarian down in the Gulf Coast who
asked if we could help rebuild libraries devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
If you have books that you are interested in donating to Gulf Coast
libraries, please email us at [email protected] for more information.

1. Great idea! Can you
post this in the fiction and non-fiction book forums also?

2. Can I do that?
I was just checking out the other forums and was wondering if I could cross-post. Thanks for the suggestion!

3. I don't know why not; the avid readers go to the other forums,
and might be more likely to have some books lying around to donate.

5. Aye, if only this had been posted a bit sooner
Barely a month ago I got rid of several boxes of books that I would have gladly donated to this effort. :-(
