WCU students collecting books for elementary school

Students living in Reynolds Residence Hall of Western Carolina University are seeking new or used books as part of a project to donate them to students at Smokey Mountain Elementary School.

The students are trying to collect 1,000 books by Nov. 18 and are asking people to:

• Donate a favorite childhood book.

• Donate new or gently used books.

• Donate money for book purchases.

• Help spread the news about the book drive.

Books may be dropped off at Reynolds Residence Hall or Scott Hall on the campus of Western Carolina University. Students will pick up books for those what can’t get to campus.
