Campus book drive under way

2:09 p.m., Oct. 12, 2006--UD's Bank of America Career Services Center, in partnership with Success Won't Wait, is conducting a book drive during October, which will end on Make a Difference Day on Saturday, Oct. 28.

Students, staff and faculty are encouraged to drop off used books at designated book drops near the information desks in either the Perkins Student Center or Trabant University Center, the English department or at career services. The books will be collected and donated to hospitals, schools, doctors' offices and youth centers.

Book boxes will be clearly marked. Kids' books, classics, teen favorites, paperback and hardbacks are all welcome. (No textbooks, magazines or encyclopedias, please.)

Vincenza Carrieri-Russo, AS '08, and alumna Susan McNeill, with help from Russo's brother, alumnus Italo Carrieri-Russo and other family members, created Success Won't Wait in 2002. Since then, the organization has collected and donated more than 22,000 books. Last year, UD students donated more than 2,000 books.
