Everyone! Did you know that there is an occupation going on in Chapel
Hill? If you have been following the events in New York at Occupy Wall
Street, then you might be interested in knowing that a group of people
have been successfully occupying the Peace and Justice Plaza in downtown
Chapel Hill since Saturday morning. Come out and join them, even if it's
only for a couple of hours--you don't have to stay the night! There is
also always a need for food and supplies (stop by the Plaza to check out
the list of needs, posted at the Information table). Keep up to date by
following #occupychc on twitter, or check out occupychapelhill.org.


Here's a look at what's coming up at I-Books in the upcoming weeks!

INVOLVED IN DEFORESTATION TO REMOVE THE PROFIT POTENTIAL FROM COMPANIES
WREAKING ENVIRONMENTAL DESTRUCTION.

DATE CHANGE (AGAIN, BUT WILL NOT CHANGE AGAIN!):
ANNUAL MEMBER MEETING: TUE NOV 1 AT VIMALA'S CURRYBLOSSOM CAFE, 6PM-8PM


This annual member meeting is for current members and members who are
in need of renewing their annual memberships. At this meeting (which is
more like a party), members vote on new board members. This is one of
the privileges of becoming a member. If that is not enough to entice
you, Vimala is generously catering this event at her own restaurant for
us. That's right--free food from Vimala's Curryblossom Cafe, the
tastiest food in town :) If you can't make it to the meeting, please
consider coming by the store to renew your membership. You can also do
so online by following this link:
