computers that no longer meet
our needs.
So, they are offeringthese gems
of by gone library activity for sale
in a silent auction that will run
for two weeks, Jan. 12 to Jan. 29.
The high bidders will have one
week to remove their prizes from
the library. Proceeds revejdto
Pettigrew Regional Libra?^,
original purchasers of the equip
ment
The rules are very simple.
Come to the library to see the
items on sale. Record your bid on
the sheets attached to each item.
Highest bidders will be notified
Jan. 31 and will have one week to
remove the items from the li
brary. Anything unclaimed
within the required period will
go to the second highest bidder.
These are the items: one card
catalogue; two wooden boxes
with drawers; three computers
(2 Microscan and 1 Compaq) that
include 14" monitors, CPUs and
keyboards (each computer is sold
as a unit).
