Adult Literacy Council Booksale
Aug. 12th, 2004 08:20 pmSo, every year the local Adult Literacy Council has a major booksale. Normally, it's at the mall, but this year they held it at their new offices. This is good for them because it means they didn't have to pay the extra rent, which had to severely reduce the proceeds. However, the way it was set up(tonight was the preview night) you couldn't move! there was probably a good quarter of the stuff that you couldn't get to because it was so cramped. I also learned that a lot of books hadn't been put out because there wasn't anywhere to put them. My friend Laura and I wentthrough it 2-3 times, just to make sure we didn't miss a room.
Anyway, I left with only one box. They open at 9 am tomorrow, so I'll be there early-ish to pick it over and use big begging eyes to try to get to look at the boxesthey have hidden away...somewhere.
