Please hold your Mountains of Books until May 17!
FAL is blessed with generous donors who donate books by the mountain!  Thank you. 

Now, please hold onto any more donations until after the May 15 & 16 sale!  We can hardly edge through our storage room - it is full to bursting.  Also please check through your donations to be sure they have not been damaged by water or mold or insects, as those donations can cause health problems.

Come to the BIG sale May 15&16, volunteer if you can, and help us clear our storage area.
