Valerie Koehler, owner of Houston’s Blue Willow Bookshop, has begun a nationwide book drive to restock the shelves in three school libraries that lost most of their collections due to Hurricane Ike.
With the help of store staff, area student organizations, and scout troops, Koehler hopes to collect more than a thousand books by December 1 to deliver to Anahuac High School, Alief Hastings 9th Grade Center, and Brazosport Intermediate School.
The specific needs of each school and ways to help are available on the Blue Willow Bookshop website’s Hurricane Ike Library Relief page. Story from ABA’s Bookselling This Week.
