Books, magazines cited
as personalized' gifts
By Dick Hovorka
Tis 9 season to be jolly-especially if you happen to sell
books.
Nebraska Bookstore stages a four-month promotion for
the holiday season, said store manager John Wehr.
"Sales (holiday season) have doubled in the last five
years. This could be due in part to the new books being
printed each year," Wehr said.
Wehr said the reason for the increased popularity is the
"personalized idea of a book. If you have 500 friends.you
can find 500 different choices of books. With something
like dothes there is only a limited range."
Gloria Ciron, manager of the Brandeis book department,
said books are becoming "easier to buy. Books are more
publicized."
She said the favorite magazines are Seventeen, Glamor
and Good Housekeeping.
