PALMS latest Lend A Hand - Thurgood Marshall - 10/14/23.
"I just wanted to give a big, giant THANK YOU! to all the wonderful LMTs who came out to Thurgood this last weekend to help with my giant non-fiction weed.
I just finished deleting the last of those books from the system and I have my
newest stats.
I am down from 11,826 books to 9,316 (2,510 books!). The age of my NF went from 2005 to 2006, and my NF/F ratio went from 69/26 to 60/33."
