Library
This is a listing of all of the books currently owned by GCS. If you would like to borrow one, let us know, and we will bring it to the next regular meeting for you. If you can't make it to the meeting, we can make alternate arrangements. If there is a book you're interested in borrowing but you don't see it here, tell us. If enough people are interested, we'll try to get a copy. Also, if you have books you'd like to donate to the library, we'd be more than happy to accept them.
