Book Donations Sought

The Summit College Club is seeking book donations for its
annual Book Sale. All
books must be in good condition and packed in bags or boxes.  

The book drop off in Westy’s lobby will run from 8am to 5pm
on weekdays; from 9am to 5pm on Saturdays; and from 11am to 3pm on
Sundays.   The Summit College Club Book Sale does not accept textbooks, manuals, magazines
or encyclopedias.  All other books are
welcome and appreciated, as are CDs and DVDs. 

Anita Meritt, who has overseen a significant growth in the
annual sale over the past five years, says, “The Summit College Club Book Sale
is a win-win endeavor.  Donors have the
opportunity to give their used books to a good cause.  And at the sale, customers have the
opportunity to buy the books they want at bargain prices.  With Westy donating the space needed to collect
the books, and volunteers sorting the books and staffing the sale, nearly all the
money received goes to fund our college scholarships for deserving young
women.  What could be better?”

What, indeed?  Debby
Nedelman, this year’s co-chair, notes that last year’s event saw more than 25,000
books sold over six days, and “everyone had a great time.” 

The Book Sale will be held at the American Legion Hall, 357
Elkwood Avenue, New Providence from March 25 through 30, 2014.    The
sale is eagerly awaited by dealers and readers from all over the tri-state
region.

To volunteer for the sale or get more information about
donating books, please email summitcollegeclub@yahoo.com.
