Building More Effective Friends Groups- with EveryLibrary Institute Training – John Chrastka
World of Books Presentation
Watch or download the presentation below titled “World of Books (WOB) Your Way to Funds,” by Simon Boes, Treasurer of FOKL and Friends Book Cellar Manager in Lexington. Simon Boes did an exemplary job compiling essential information to assist Kentucky Friends groups, regardless of size, in their initiatives.
A great way to make more space and money for used books that just haven’t found a good home.
