I'm asking that everyone blog, tweet, fb and/or email tomorrow about the Guys Lit Wire Book Fair to help Ballou High School. I'm trying to sustain momentum (from yesterday's lesson) and get more books bought off this massive list. If you do tweet about it, please use the #booksforballou hashtag so we can get something trending. Regardless of how you get the word out, please link to the GLW post which has all the pertinent info and the list.
If you need reminding of why this project matters so much, take a look at the video from the Ballou library as made by librarian Melissa Jackson. This is what sold me on the project and I'm sure it will capture your attention as well. It's put up or shut up time folks, and we have absolutely got to do something to change this.
As always, thanks so much for all that you do.......

I tweeted it again and facebooked it for the first time. How do you feel the speed of filling the list is comparing with previous years (I was just wondering how economic problems might be affecting/not affecting a project that's been so successful in past years)
