A number of colleges and universities are working with the Library of Congress and the ABAA (Antiquarian Booksellers’ Association of America) to sponsor a national book collection contest for college students. There is a list at the ABAA site, and FD knows that some institutions (like the University of Iowa) have contests that have not yet been listed.
FD supports book collecting and hopes these contests encourage many more people to become bibliophiles and to buy books — both used and new and NOT electronic!
Various awards can be used at the programs of colleges, post secondary agricultural course, and universities.
