    How to send books to New Orleans

    I'm glad this article was written so that people will remember not to forget. The Gulf will need our help for a long time.

    I recently received an email requesting that people send books to the library in New Orleans.

    Send to: Rica A. Trigs

    New Orleans Public Library

    219 Loyola Avenue

    New Orleans LA 70112

    I've been going through my bookshelves. If we all do that it will make a big difference.

    Thanks,

    Molly
