And just a final reminder: 100% of all net proceeds from this sale will be donated to the Dunedin Friends of the Library to support the many community programs so treasured by the residents of lovely Dunedin, Florida. I won't pocket a penny from the transaction. The Dunedin Public Library and the Friends folks had to close the volunteer-run book store and cancel the annual book sale during the pandemic (though both have been restored in 2022), so these eBay auctions will help the library staff re-engage literacy programs, activities for kids, outreach to the community, and events for our seniors. You can visit the Dunedin Friends of the Library on Facebook to learn more about this excellent organization. Thank you for your help.
