All proceeds from Where Are My Books? tote bags will go to FirstBook

After I posted a photo of my WHERE ARE MY BOOKS? tote bag online (a total stranger on the subway asked me if I was a librarian, which made me happy for so many reasons) and also while I was wandering around the OLA Super Conference, I had a number of people ask where they could get their own tote bag.
When I created the tote bag via Society6, it was just for my own ability to get the bag. I would have kept the listing private except you can't on Society6; the item has to be available for sale. I didn't publicize the link at all.
But since people have been asking, here's the link. The bag I've been carrying around is the Medium size, and I find it's a good carry-around bag, especially if you plan to carry around books. :-) There are also smaller and larger sizes. To those in Canada: be warned that the shipping/customs is crazy-expensive; in addition to the shipping, you'll also be asked to pay a customs charge when the package arrives.
13" x 13" - US $18 + shipping
16" x 16" - US $22 + shipping
18" x 18" - US $24 + shipping
Since Society6 doesn't allow me to sell the bags at cost, I've priced the bag as low as possible. I will also donate the US $1 profit I make from each bag to First Book, a non-profit which helps provide new books for children in need. If you're a school or organization who serves children from low-income families, I encourage you to register at First Book.
