Library to host Staff Book Swap, January 17

Published on: Tuesday, January 8th, 2013

All are welcome and invited!

The Non-Exempt Staff Council invites you to a warm- get-together on Thursday afternoon, January 17, 2013 from 2pm to 4pm in the O’Shaughnessy Room (Rm 108) of the O’Shaughnessy-Frey Library for a Staff Book Swap!

Bring favorite books that you no longer wish to keep – share your reading experiences – enjoy some cocoa and cookies with friends old and new – pick up some books you haven’t read yet!  

We’ll have a little impromptu book store set up just for the afternoon – and it’s all free.

We hope you will be able to come!   And please visit our website to learn about the work of the Staff Council for Hourly Employees.

If you have books you would like to drop off for the Swap, please bring them anytime between January 8 and Noon on January 17 to the library office, Room 203, where we’ll keep them safe until the Book Swap. Questions? Please call Julie at 962-5014.

    When it comes to my favorite books, I am not sure if I can just swap them with someone else’s favorite book. I am not comfortable parting ways with a book that I have probably read so many times before. However, it would also be a great opportunity to get to read a book that I probably missed out on.

    Thank you for taking time to comment. We may hold this type of event again and if you are able to come, please do – and don’t worry if you don’t have books you are ready to part with – you are welcome to attend and please feel free to help yourself to some that might look inviting!
