Notes: This is a small public school of 330 students that is in a financial crisis. The library budget was cut from $5700.00 to $3400.00 this year, and the amount will not likely increase in the years to come. We are in the state Capital, therefore we do not receive property taxes on State office buildings. Our needs are many - magazines, Science Fiction books, and all non-fiction areas. Any donations would be extremely appreciated.

Notes: The recipient, who is twelve, began homeschooling last year. Because of his great interest in speculative fiction and science I try to include SF in much of what I assign him. In fact, the first book I assigned him was "The Martian Chronicles". Homeschooling can get expensive, so any thing you can donate would not only be appreciated, but would be shared with other homeschoolers who may have an interest. Thank you.
