The old Western American Literature office needed to be cleaned out. We would like to make available to a library an almost complete run of journals from 1997 to 2010. We ask that the library pay shipping plus $25 handling. If you know somebody who’d be interested, please pass this message along. Contact: Sabine Barcatta.
