The annual used book and media sale known as “Bookstock” is going on this week at Laurel Park Place mail in Livonia. Proceeds from the event support education and literacy programs throughout Metro Detroit. This year, one of the beneficiaries of “Bookstock” is Wayne State’s School of Library and Information Science, which is creating a new graduate certificate program for its students. Dr. Kafi Kumasi is an assistant professor at the school. She says the certificate will help future librarians in Detroit and other inner cities connect with their communities.
