The Health Chic Guide Now Available at Public Libraries

Wendimere Reilly's book, The Health Chic Guide: Hip, Fun, & Delicious Living is now being stocked by Baker & Taylor, one of the world's premiere distributors to public libraries as well as small independent bookstores. This is great news for us since this makes it very easy for your public library to stock our book.

This is where we need your help!!! It can be very costly to send out a direct mail campaign to the over 50,000 public libraries- and since most libraries will only order one or two copies there is a very low return on investment. But here at The Health Chic we think that libraries are a great community resource and would love to see our book available to those that either cannot afford to buy a copy of their own or choose to use the library system for sustainablility reasons.

The great news is that most librarians will order books based on user requests. So in most cases, all you have to do is ask. Since I don't think that I can legally or realistically have 50,000 library cards, I'm asking for your help. Please visit your local library and ask them to stock our book, It's that simple.

Here's how we are doing so far:

Brooklyn Public Library- NY (Boro & Central)
Detroit Public Library- MI (Chase)
Finger Lakes Library System- NY (Auburn-Seymour)
Great River Regional Library- MN (Elk River & Great River)
L. E. Phillips Memorial Public Library- WI
Lakeland Library Cooperative- MI (KDL Wyoming)
Lake Wales Public Library- FL
Mary L Cook Public Library- OH
Mount Prospect Public Library- IL
Oak Park Public Library- IL (Main)
Oakland Public Library- CA (Melrose)
Suffolk Cooperative Library System- NY (Bellport)
Winnefox Library System- WI (Oshkosh)

If you recognize any of the libraries above please ask your friends and relatives to check out a copy of our more. The more "check outs" the higher our rankings. We appreciate your support.

Healthy Reading!
