Totes for Tuscaloosa! Drop them off at the eBooks Fair on May 12 - Sponsored by Drexel

Drexel iSchool students are collecting Totes for Tuscaloosa to help victims of the recent devastating tornadoes in the South.

Drop off your totes at the May 12th NJSLA eBooks Vendor Fair at the Somerset Hills Hotel on Thursday from 4pm-9pm. Tracie Burns, Account Services Manager for EBSCO Information Services will be collecting them for the drive and dropping them off at Drexel. As librarians who attend many meetings we do have a lot of these tote bags, and can now give them a meaningful job.
 
You can also drop them off directly at Drexel per the message below. 
 
Besides being an opportunity for librarians, this is a great opportunity for vendors to get rid of old/dated totes.
