<p>This is mainly of interest to us in south-eastern MI. A fantastic and iconic, locally owned, independent book store Book Beat, is celebrating it's 35th anniversary. Just wanted to help spread the word. They have helped sell books w/us and are fierce promoters
of the libraries in the nearby communities. Should be a fun party!<br>
