Capricon 35 Book Drive
010 years
Don’t forget that Capricon is conducting a book drive throughout the weekend. The Info Desk will be accepting donations of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror novels as part of the Science Fiction Outreach Project – USA. These books will be passed out at comic book conventions to promote literacy, and help grow the genre fan base. We are particularly looking for young adult and children’s genre books.
