11:30 – 12:00 The Great GSSD Book Swap Once again we invite you to bring resources that you do not need in your library, but may benefit another library. I expect that the tables will be laden with new or “gently used,” but still current resources. Remember, this is a “no questions asked” event. I can let you in on a little insider information: a certain very large high school has deselected a large number of fiction titles at a grades 6 – 8 reading level. There will most certainly be some excellent material for the taking.
