I wish him luck, but even if you’re getting your inventory for free, bookselling can still be a tough way to generate income.
If you have any used books, just take them to the Friends of the Library sale. They raise money for special programs at the Ann Arbor District Library. Just go to the back door in the parking lot off William St. and ring the bell. If you want a tax deductible receipt, they will give you one.
