Dewey Donation System

For the second year in a row, I've given to the Dewey Donation System. It's a book drive for specific libraries ran by writer Pamela Ribon. The concept is simple - she picks a library, and donors go to the library's Amazon wish list and order items. Last year, the target was the Harrison County MS library system. Most of their libraries were blitzed by Katrina. The ones that didn't end up (literally) out to sea suffered significant water / wind damage.

This year she's got two targets. One is a literacy program in Jamaica, which is a cash-only thing (shipping costs are a killer) and the other is a Los-Angeles-based children's library. I encourage folks to surf on over and donate. Also, there are a couple of drawings for books (including a Scalzi novella) that are open only to those who give. Surf on over to Dewey Donation System to do your good deed for the day and get into some drawings for cool stuff!
