Western Mass. Radical Reference
June 29, 2009, Monday, meeting notes
Since it was just a few of us we mostly socialized. We did look over a
list of activities that NYRR was involved in to help us brainstorm ideas
for WMRR's activities here in the Pioneer Valley. It was decided that we
would join the Prison Book Project at its upcoming Book Party since
they'll be dealing with their overstock of books and librarians will come
in handy sorting, weeding, and organizing the many books.
An event page for it has been set up on Facebook. Details are also below.

To prepare for re-opening this fall, Prison Book Project is having a book
party. And you're invited! Join us Sunday, July 12th, from 3-6pm to sort
through over 50 boxes of books. We need to arrange them by subject, remove
hardcovers and textbooks as well as any other books we can't use, and any
other tasks that come up as we spend the afternoon at the space.
Any questions, just send us an email. We look forward to seeing you and
getting PBP back in shape for sending books to prisoners.
Thanks for your support and stay tuned for when we'll be re-opening this
fall!
