FIAR+in+WC+Public+Libraries

= Five in a Row Books at the Wake County Library (summer 2010) = To request a set of books at the library, go to your favorite library at least a month in advance (they'd prefer longer to try to get them all back from users -- you can put in more than 1 request at a time) and fill out a book club form. They need to know the date you need the books and who will pick them up. If you know something about the book, please add a brief comment below. To borrow a group of books, the books need to be in the library, not Interlibrary Loan.
