We set no price on anything that goes on the "donation" table. People who want something give a donation at the circulation desk. The amount is completely of their choosing. Needless to say, we save the best "stuff" for the booksale and only put out things that we don't think would go in a booksale.   Sue Lilley Lampasas Public Library From: Laurie Mahaffey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 09, 2005 10:09 AM To: ctls-l Subject: FW: on-going book sale This is a message from CTLS-L.
