[Noisebridge-discuss] Donating a non-technical book

There is a little section but it is disorganized right now -- it's on 
the bookshelf that's backed up against the pillar, facing the other 
technical bookshelves. There's books there on cooking, finance, law, 
history, craft/DIY, bartending, interior decoration, and some novels. 
I'd like to make a survival-skills section though, that would be useful.

If you want to reorganize a section for that, go for it! I was thinking 
to put it on the shelf just above the "internet/computer culture" books. 
  Right now that shelf has a lot of 3d graphics programming stuff but it 
could be moved up and double-stacked or some of those graphics books 
weeded out. They take up about a third of the bookshelves total, and 
they don't appear to get the heavy use that other sections get. 
(Tracking "use" by what I reshelve whenever I am in the space.)
