i played hooky from conf for ~1 hr on friday to go to #friendsofthelibrary #usedbooksale at new brunswick free public library. i can’t resist a #book sale especially at public libraries. i got 7 books for $13. interestingly, none were ex-library copies. several seemed brand new. #happy #blackstudies
