Sigma Tau Delta, the UST English honor society, is hosting a charitable book drive in December. Members of the UST community are invited to donate new or gently used children’s books to be given to the children’s library at the Sheila Wellstone Center in Bloomington, a part of the National Library Initiative.
Founded by Jewish Women International, the National Library Initiative works to collect books for battered women’s shelters so that mothers and children have a place to read and spend time together while they rebuild their lives.
Collection boxes are located at the Reference Desk of the O’Shaughnessy-Frey Library Center; Murray-Herrick Campus Center; and the third floor of John R. Roach Center for the Liberal Arts on the St. Paul campus; and in the Charles J. Keffer Library in Opus Hall on ther Mpls campus.
Sigma Tau Delta is hoping to collect many, many books by the end of this drive. Thank you in advance for any contribution you are able to make!
