==============================
Left Hand depends on volunteers to keep running. We have a a serious shortage of volunteers at the store. The requirements are not onerous: agree with the principles of unity of the store, go though a training session of about one hour, make a commitment to volunteer for at least six months, and do at least two (3 or 4 hour) shifts per month. Besides staffing the store, the amount of your involvement is up to you: all volunteers are encouraged to "adopt a section" and be responsible for ensuring that the books in that section are kept in proper order. In addition, you can learn how to receive shipments, prepare purchase orders, accept and process customer special orders, and many other jobs that are involved in keeping a bookstore running.
Without enough volunteers, the store cannot function. Please consider volunteering to ensure the viability of Left Hand.
Applications for volunteering are available in the store and on our web site -- click "How to Volunteer."
=========================
SUPPORTING LEFT HAND: you can help ensure the continued operation
of the store by becoming an associate member, which entitles you
to a 10% discount on all purchases at the store. Membership costs
$25/year, or $10 for students and low income folks. As an alternative,
you can volunteer to staff the store, earning a 20% discount. Sign up
for either membership or volunteering the next time you're in the store.
