The Ann Arbor Antiquarian Book Fair tends to be a dealer-driven event focusing on the sale of books and paper, run with assistance from (and to benefit) the Clements Library at the University of Michigan. If opportunities for bookish volunteer work do not exist for this fair and you still have the itch, you might want to contact the folks at the Kerrytown Book Fest about their outstanding program in September. http://www.kerrytownbookfest.org/ Thanks, and either way we hope to see you at the fair on May 20! @Jared : I’m not certain, but the first step in finding out would be to contact fair organizer Jay Platt at the West Side Book Shop (see above).

(For a formal, written appraisal for tax, insurance, or estate purposes, you should expect to pay the dealer for their time and work.)
