A Virtual Auction with 100% of the funds going to UNICEF A virtual auction of special books to benefit UNICEF, the well known non-profit organization helping children in need around the world, will kick off ILAB's Virtual Celebration of the Book.

ILAB members are proud to support the work of UNICEF (www.unicef.org) as they endeavor to protect the world's children. A variety of books and prints, donated by ILAB booksellers, will be up for auction at www.ilab.org throughout the four day event. Be sure to drop by and check out the possibilities. Wouldn't it be great to add something to your collection while helping a child to a better life?
