Libraries! Technology! Wow!

Our local library system has started a wish list on Amazon.com! This is pretty neat, actually. Right now there are some children's books on there that the library needs. There may be more things on there at a later time. This is a new thing for us. As residents of our community are aware, our library system has taken some hits recently because of the economy (we are a part of the city government) but demand for library services only continues to grow as people realize just how valuable libraries are. If you love libraries and are interested in helping out (or know someone who might be), feel free to share this link with them. The library has a particular focus on helping children in our city. All public school students and most private school students were issued library cards in the last year or so, and the library sponsors a "summer reading program" every year to encourage literacy and good reading habits in children birth through age 14 (now we have one for teens, too!). So again, if you're interested, have an interest in childhood literacy, or just love libraries, feel free to check out the link! If you're like me, sometimes you like to round out an order from Amazon so you get the free super-saver shipping. This would be a great way to do so!
