[CASL-L] high school student book club books

[Tracy Earnshaw]

Don't forget the Middletown Library Service Center!  Grace Burchard is so
kind and, like the state library, sends sets of books through the C-Car
system (or whatever it's called now) so they arrive at my local library.
That said, I like the idea of a shared document so we can share book sets
that we have purchased!
