Yes, if you look on LM-NET archives for Literacy Empowerment Foundation, you will see that you should not spend your money with this organization. The books shipped are of inferior quality--nothing you would want in your library or school--and the shipping is exhorbitant. They make their money on the shipping. Don't waste your money. As the consumer experts warn, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

The Reading Resource Project is an ongoing program that runs throughout the year. The program distributes books FREE of charge for literacy programs. Recipients merely pay shipping, handling, and administrative costs, which is only $0.65 per book ($65 per set of 100 books). Reading Resource Project books come in sets of 100 books per set. There will not be more than four copies of the same book in any set. Reading levels are available for Pre-K through Second Grade. Book selection and quantity is dependent upon availability, so there is no guarantee of specific titles. Books are sorted and shipped as close to a project's needs as possible, with regard to reading level and topic. Reading Resource Project books are available in a limited quantity on a first come, first served basis. Requests for quantities of less than 30 sets can be shipped within 3 to 4 weeks; larger orders may require a longer time period to fill. http://www.literacyhelp.org/reading_resource_project/ ~~~ mary gavlik library media specialist chuckey-doak middle school afton, tn ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You see, I don't believe that libraries should be drab places where people sit in silence, and that's been the main reason for our policy of employing wild animals as librarians. - Monty Python skit --------------------------------- Never miss a thing.
