Need more room on your bookshelves? Want to help attract science fiction
& fantasy readers to fannish activities such as Worldcon and also other
cons, gatherings, and clubs?

The Science Fiction Outreach Project (SFOP) will put your extra genre
books to good use, giving them away to readers next month at C2E2, the
Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo. Each book will have a bookmark
promoting Worldcon, local conventions, and the groups sponsoring the
outreach project.

*Donating Books by Mail*

If you're not able to bring books to the NESFA Clubhouse or the Other
Meeting, you can still participate in the SFOP Book Drive. Send books to :

Chicon 7
Attn: Science Fiction Outreach Project
P.O. Box 13
Skokie, IL 60076

SFOP recommends sending them via USPS Media Mail:
http://www.usps.com/send/media-mail.htm

Please send books by Saturday, March 31 to assure they arrive in Chicago
in time for C2E2. Sooner is better; the team in Chicago is already
sorting and organizing books donated at Capricon and others they've
received.
