  About linking to Amazon or B&N or whomever...

  Just a note...  I know that some public libraries have had complaints from the local "little guy" book stores.  As in:  "Why are you promoting Goliath (Amazon, B&N) and ignoring David's Book store?!".  Don't forget that if a local bookseller is paying taxes in your comminity they may have cause to complain.  And often, the local bookstore is the one who will be supporting your summer reading program.
