    That's a very nice offer that you peeps are making to donate the books directly. I'm trying to work with the publisher to see how we can make this as inexpensive and easy as possible. BTW, if you do buy a book and donate it, are you allowed to put a note saying "Donated by BYC member xxxxxx"...

    Hopefully all the B&N, Borders, & Walden stores will already have them (or have them soon)... but it doesn't hurt to ask! Getting them in the libraries is super easy with no cost to request it. Hopefully if all our members put in the requests now they will be in the libraries by next Spring...
