06.24.09: Amazin' Results from Amazon Associates

From The Friends of the Memorial Hall Library in Andover:

"You can support the Friends of MHL by making your Amazon purchases (all your purchases, not just books) through the links that are provided on the Friends web page or on the home page for the Library. The process is simple. When you decide to purchase an item from Amazon, connect to Amazon through our web site by first going to the Friends page or the MHL home page and then click on the Amazon link or do a search through the Amazon search box.

The Friends and Library benefit because we participate in ' Amazon Associates,' a program that Amazon has instituted to drive traffic to their online store. Being an Associate allows us to receive 4 to 8.5% of your sale. For example, if you purchase a $100 item, we would get between $4 and $8.50, just because you used our website to connect to Amazon.

This is a very painless way that you can help the Friends and your local Library. The money we make from Amazon will be used for MHL programs (Teens and Children Programs, Concerts, Museum passes, and other special events)."
