[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone done a local book drive? Parents could donate any books their children have outgrown or no longer need, and then someone could go through and pick out the books that are in library-appropriate condition.[/quote] Wouldn't that just increase the inequality? My guess is that families in high-SES neighborhoods would be able to donate more books in better condition, while families in low-SES neighborhoods would be limited in their ability to donate. Unless you mean a citywide system, where the donated books are redistributed to the schools with the greatest need?[/quote]
