I just took five big boxes of books - harcover fiction and mystery titles, trade paperback romances, mass market espionage thrillers, learn-to-draw books, children's picture books, history books on the area, and a range of classics - to the Hampton library. I had them in the trunk of my car, and I went in first to make sure they could use them. The woman in charge, Susan, came out and assured me that they'd be happy to accept a donation, since they had just purchased a new bookmobile, and they were trying to get it stocked. I hadn't mentioned how many books I was donating, so when I asked if I could borrow their handtruck, her eyes got all wide. ^_^ She thanked me a bunch of times, and when I left the office staff were already breaking into the boxes and talking about how many shelves they'd fill.

Felt good to do something nice. I'll have to remember their new bookmobile and suggest it at the holiday meeting when we decide on a recipient for the annual bookdrive.
