We will only be ordering a couple times a month in order to save our office on shipping as well and you will be contacted when your order is ready to be picked up. We will be taking orders (for the free shipping) until January 31st, 2025. We will still order the books you need after January 31st, but please be aware that you will be charged shipping (shipping charges will be divided out amongst those in the same order).
