We never know what will be donated, but sometimes we get full sets of encyclopedias, or a complete book series, or collectible items with higher value, and it’s hard to put them out at regular price.

So Darlene created the “Let’s Make a Deal” shelf. The items pictured will be for sale on Saturday, May 16th. We’ll be open from 10am to 3pm in the lower level of Swanson Library if you’d like to take a closer look.

A Monster Musume and a Rave Master manga book series, an encyclopedia set from 1935, a Yankees magazine, a dictionary set of musicians and music, and a young folks book treasury set.

If you’re interested in making a deal, ask for Darlene!
