ARMENIAN NUMISMATIC SOCIETY OFFERS BOOK DONATIONS TO SCHOOLS

The Armenian Daily Newspaper Asbarez published an item on September
20th about donations of numismatic books by the Armenian Numismatic
Society:

"Keeping with its tradition of promoting and encouraging the science
of Armenian numismatics, the executive board of the Armenian Numismatic
Society has decided to begin donating Armenian numismatic books to
Armenian High Schools in the United States.

"Numismatic books for Armenian high schools in the United States
are considered a luxury which is sometimes out of the question.
Armenian day-schools in the United States are subsidized by donations
from parents, benefactors and members of the Armenian community
living within the immediate vicinity of the school. Tuition fees
cover only a fraction of the total expenses and tight budgets limit
the financial allocations for Armenological books.

"For the past few decades, the Society has been shipping numismatic
books to Armenia to be distributed to Armenian schools of higher
education in order to spread the knowledge of Armenian numismatics.
While a few schools in the Los Angeles area have also received
publications from the Society or various other sources.

"The website for the Armenian Numismatic Society is
www.ArmNumSoc.org.  The Society's secretary may be
contacted at 562-695-0980 or by e-mail at ArmNumSoc@aol.com.
The Society is located at 8511 Beverly Park Place, Pico Rivera,
CA 90660-1920"
