Not only book stores, but used book stores ans garage sales. I have a box in the back of my car I use to store garage sale purchases and thrift store purchases. The Goosebumps, Mary-Kate & Ashley, Star Wars, etc the kids love but I don't want to spend my book budget on get bought for no more than $.50 and brought into school. Sometimes if I mention it's for a school library, the garage saler has just given me the books. I also use my Palm Pilot to store titles i see and want to purchase. -- Pam Gelbmann, Media Specialist Wilson Elem.
