Subject Kudos to Library Club
Hi All,
I just wanted to send a big public Kudos to the Library Club. They have reached a milestone in their 
current project to send textbooks to Africa....
The Club currently has about 15 boxes of textbooks that were gifts that are not being added to the 
collection but that are exactly the kind of books the Books For Africa project wants. The Club is raising 
money to pay for the postage required to send these boxes to Books For Africa's main base in Minnesota. 
From there they are packed into large cargo containers and shipped to libraries, schools, and other 
institutions in Africa.
Today the Club's fund-raising pool reached $123 - about one-quarter what they need to ship all the 
current boxes, and enough to begin sending a few boxes now (which will cost about $40 each to mail). 
There has been alot of effort put into this project so far and Bob Lobou, Victor Santiago, Kristen Reynolds 
and the Officers and Members of the Library Club all deserve a round of applause!
About the Library Club (see their blog: http://thelibraryclub.wordpress.com/)
• President Lauren Guenveur.
• Vice President Steven Lee.
• Treasurer Nina Stark.
• Secretary Raja Singh.
• Web Design/Graphics/LC Radio Lauren Guenveur.

Quick FAQ
• The library club which is also know as “The LC” (a parody on The OC and ironically a play on the Library 
of Congress) has been in existence officially for 2 semesters.
• The LC unofficially originated in the summer of 2004 with a core group of student assistances that 
befriended each other. Given their understanding of library concerns and student concerns they felt a 
syntheses should be formed to address both. The LC is a bridge for that synthesis. The Student 
Undergraduate Government agreed and the club was formed. The LC is open to all SBU students and 
further promotions will be on the way.
Cheers,
Aimee
