[Publib] Collection Development of classic literature

[Sarah Allaire]

Carolyn,

We just recently updated our "classics."  Barnes and Noble has a very good
classics collection that's cheap and has free shipping over $25.  Most of
the hardcovers are under $10.
If you go to the below website and search Barnes and Noble Classic Series,
they should show up.  You can narrow them by hardcover and paperback too if
you want.

Here is their library website, where they offer even more of a discount when
you sign up your library.

Hope this helps!

Sarah
