Joplin Books: mobile charity bookshelves

Jim Stuart of Olathe  and Gary Forister of Kansas City, North, are two of the members of the Kansas City Woodworkers' Guild building 24 portable "libraries" (front left) at their Kansas City shop Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2011. The mobile units, rolling bookshelves designed to open like a book and look like a book, will go to Iverson and Emerson elementary schools in Joplin. Hallmark volunteers will paint the libraries.
