Great, read in the park!

Posted on 29Sep05 by jessamyn

If you’re in New York City this weekend you might want to check out the Great Read In The Park on Sunday all day. It’s apparently a celebration of the 70th anniversary of the NYTimes best-seller list and the proceeds benefit libraries and schools in New York. Clearly they’ve got some big marketing bucks behind them. I like the idea of a Gently Used, Greatly Loved Book Sale.
