Dear Virginia:
Enclosed is a list of books about Black History and contemporary Black experience which I would recommend that the NAACP donate to the ISP library.
The total cost of the books is $54.70. Mr. Abel from the prison can order these books through the Keosippi Area Library and by doing so take advantage of an average 39 % discount which would reduce the cost of this list to $33.34. Having him order the books this way has the added advantage of having them come cataloged and ready for use. If yo like I will be glad to talk to Bill about ordering them this way.
Sincerely,
