Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Feel free to send anyone this way and let them know if they email me I’ll be happy to answer any specific questions.

Good on you for the volunteering and taking care of the kids books. By nature of their audience alone, they take a lot of wear and tear. At the Wasilla Library, I’d say about 70% of the books that need mending are from the Juve collection.

If I can help in any way then please let me know.

George

I’m so glad to see you share your skill on book mending. I’ve been volunteering at the Kids’ school mending books and realized how huge the problem is as the books are falling apart in their hands and there is so little budget. If I don’t fix them they just don’t have it anymore. I’m trying to put together a non-profit to help as the problem is huge. Soliciting donations and help to get the books fixed. May I point parents to your blog? You explain these simple fixes very well.

Thank you

Jennifer
