| | |  L.A. County libraries gear up for Potter
Libraries in Los Angeles County plan to purchase up to 800 copies of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in preparation for the onslaught of eager readers of the HP series. Multiple copies of the book will be distributed to each of the county’s libraries, which people can start reserving in May. The library system anticipates more than 1,000 people to sign up for the waiting list. | |

Cool~
I already have the first six series of the books.
I can't wait until the Deathly Hollows come out.
It's going to be forever until them.
But the good news is that we know J.K. Rowling is almost done with the book.

I'm going to buy right away when it comes out. Usually I manage to pre-order a Deluxe Edition of the book and then get a normal copy at midnight. | |

Good planning. I hope the ink has a chance to dry before shipment. I hope SS has plans to handle the massive load. I'll bet we set a new online record.
