生徒会の古本市

It was decided that they would collect books that people had finished reading, sell them at low prices, and use that money for the library shelves.

Minato and Saki are first-year students who were put in charge of that preparation.

At first, they intended to place the collected books on top of the desks just as they were.

However, when they consulted the teacher, they were told, “It is better to put books of the same kind close together.”

So the two of them decided to divide them into four groups: stories, cooking, study books, and children’s books.

But there are also books whose contents are hard to understand from the cover alone.

For that reason, Saki suggested writing a short introduction on paper and setting it up in front of each book.

Minato said, “Let’s write the prices large in advance too. I want to make it so that people can understand without asking.”

On the day before the work, the two of them bought paper of different colors and thick pens in advance.

Because they had also decided in advance where the people who carried desks and the people who handled payment would be, the preparation finished earlier than they had expected.

When the venue opened, the lower-grade students were able to quickly find the books they wanted to read by themselves.

Parents also said, “Because there are introductions, it is easy to choose.”

Seeing this, the teacher looked relieved.

After it ended, Minato felt, “It is important not only to collect books, but also to think from the standpoint of the people who come.”

Saki also said, “Next time, I want to make posters too and have more people come.”
