[CASL-L] weeded books

[Egan, Danelle]

Thank you Annie! I got in touch with Gary from Discover Books and they’re
coming this week!
He told me I could share his direct contact info with all of you:
Gary Parenteau
Gparenteau at discoverbooks.com
1-401-408-8606
He is the New England manager and sounded like a really great guy. They
resell, donate, or recycle the books.
