It's mid-November, time to start thinking seriously about shopping for the upcoming holidays. We've got recommendations, a two-week holiday sale, and timing suggestions for the Unshelved Store:

RECOMMENDATIONS

• For your staff: the library notebook, which is both useful and hilarious, now available in a thrifty 20-pack
• For book nerds: our Bibliovore book bag, plus Read Irresponsibly, Will Work For books, Bibliovore, and All You Need is Books shirts
• For our biggest fans: the Ultimate Gene & Bill bundle
• For crusaders against censorship: our Intellectual Freedom Fighter messenger bag and/or shirt
• For teachers, school librarians, and children's librarians: our new Reads Well With Others shirt
• For children: Read To Me and Reads Well With Others onesies and kid's shirts

We thought of having another Black Friday sale, but we don't want you to put off your shopping. So we're going to start it now. Today through Monday, November 26:

• All Unshelved books and book bundles are half-price
• Every library notebook comes with a free Unshelved bookmark
• Every order includes a free Intellectual Freedom Fighter lanyard

If you want delivery before Christmas, we offer the following suggestions:

• International orders should be placed by Monday, November 26
• U.S. orders should be placed by Tuesday, December 18
• Orders including Made-to-order shirts (adult versions of Read To Me, Reads Well With Others, and What Happens in the Library Stays in the Library) should be placed as early as possible
