Searchable Book Sale Directory Launches

-- Library Journal, 09/13/2006

Library friends groups and others holding book sale fundraising events can now use Book Sale Scout for listings. The new free site offers features including instant book sale alerts, integration into Google maps, customizable email reminders, user comments about each sale, and more updated features. "We've worked hard to build a book sale directory which offers significant value added for both book sale organizers and attendees," said Book Sale Scout developer Lucas R. Ames. "Our goal is to have sale organizers submit their sales themselves. In our initial database population, however, we've spent a lot of time collecting and confirming data, mostly from sources we did not know even existed."
