The New Orleans Public Library is asking for any and all hardcover and
paperback books for people of all ages in an effort to restock the
shelves after Katrina.
The staff will assess which titles will be designated for its
collections.
The rest will be distributed to destitute families or sold for library
fundraising.
If you tell the post office that books are for the library in New
Orleans, you will be given a library rate which is less than the book
rate.
Keep a record of the books sent, value and cost of shipping.
This information can be used for tax purposes.
