Save Our Libraries!


"We need to shift our national view of libraries not as luxuries, but as necessities. When tragedy strikes in other nations, Americans are generous, but our libraries are being hit with a tsunami and there has been no call to action."
- author Karin Slaughter



To help her local library, Slaughter has banded together with fellow authors to auction off signed books, paintings, theatre tickets, lunch with a literary agent, lunch with authors, and much, much more. Money raised from the first auction will benefit DeKalb County Public Library in Decatur, Georgia.

There are some wonderful items up for auction, so be sure to Save the Libraries today!
