[LM_NET] TAR: Book Swap

[Toni Buzzeo <tonibuzzeo@TONIBUZZEO.COM>]

Hello Friends,

I'm writing an article in my Mrs. Skorupski hat about book swaps.  I haven't
hosted one myself but I've talked to folks who have and they sound like an
excellent idea!  Of course, the key is good organization, so that is what
I'd love to hear.  How did you organize yours? For each book that a student
brought in, did they get a book in return? Were there any restrictions? Did
you have a way to ensure that needy kids got books even if they couldn't
donate any?

And then, of course, I'd like to hear any warnings about what NOT to do,
pitfalls, detours, etc.

As usual, I'd love to quote you, so let me know if that's okay!

Best,
Toni
