Marion, Iowa (February 2, 2009) - Book sales are excellent fund-raising events for local libraries especially during tough economic times when people are searching for bargains. A new website, BookSaleList.com, has been launched to help libraries promote book sales and bookstores.
"We've worked hard to design a website that is not only easy to use, but will offer a significant value to book sale organizers.
