Session on book repair techniques

Many of you might remember a "Call for volunteers and donations for
a demonstration of three basic book repair techniques at the next
ALA midwinter and/or the next ALA Annual meeting" that I sent out on
August 25th this year.  Here is where things stand at this time.  By
the way, we are still looking for more volunteers and $$.

    1.  The Library of Congress (Diane Nester Kresh) has donated a
        section of their booth    at ALA Annual 1998 in Washington,
        DC.

    2.  We have 9 to 10 volunteers to do the demonstrations.

    3.  We currently have about 150 books donated for repairs from
        North Carolina State    (Winston Atkins) Harvard Law School
        (Will Meredith),  and U. of Michigan (Shannon Zachary).

    4.  Gaylord Brothers has offered to provide all materials,
        equipment, and $250 for    additional expenses.

    5.  Solinet has offered to donate $500 (along with two of the
        volunteer demonstrators).

    6.  Acme Bookbinding is donating $250.

    7.  Bridgeport National Bindery will donate $250

    8.  Library Binding Supply will donate $250
