While you shop
We are not encouraging you to do so - and readers should be aware that there is an attempt to organise a boycott of Amazon this Christmas to push them to pay a living wage - but if you do shop online with Amazon anyway we can earn a small cut of what you pay for your shopping. This is at no extra cost for you. All you have to do is use this link to enter Amazon when you plan to buy.?

Out of interest how much does libcom cost to run a year?
Ya, I'd like to know this one as well.
It works out about £110 per month at present I believe, although we would like to upgrade our hosting to get a faster server, which would be more. We also have occasional one-off costs like purchasing additional server space during upgrades.
Could you please put the amazon link inline so I can save it as a bookmark? When I click those I go right to the amazon homepage, so if I bookmark that I don't think it'll help.
Done.
it still seems to go straight to Amazon.co.uk, it's been doing this a while
does libcom still have money coming in from that link?
The link does take you straight to Amazon.co.uk, but it does work and give us money! We have a slow but steady trickle of money from that all year
sound, i always use it but was afraid as the link url was disappearing!
I'll use the link from now on, plus I'll ask friends to.
How much money has come from the amazon.com link? How did y'all get that set up, anyway?
not a huge amount, but it is significant. About £60-£80 per year I think, or at least it was early on, it might be less now as may be fewer people use it (I don't use Amazon myself anymore really). To get on it, just Google Amazon associates
is all this still operates? the amazon thing too?
yep
Bump, if anyone is doing any Christmas shopping on Amazon.co.uk please go through our link! (N.b. we are not encouraging you to do so, this is just for if you are going to be doing that anyway)
you should share the Amazon thing on Facebook a few times a year, I suspect most of the people who follow the page would be perfectly happy to use it, but I doubt most even know about it.
thanks, we might share it once or twice, however we don't want to make too big a deal of it so as not to encourage people to shop on Amazon
In the event of my death which many people have volunteered to speed up over the years
I would like to donate all my books and pamphlets to Libcom.How do I do this?
freemind,
Or if they cannot be usefully scanned you could donate them later (or sooner) to a physical library maybe to Nottingham at http://thesparrowsnest.org.uk or Glasgows 'Spirit of Revolt' or the London 'May Day Rooms'?
Thanks Spikymike
Where are the MayDay Rooms?
MayDay Rooms, 88 Fleet Street, London, EC4Y 1DH hosts radical meetings and materials but I haven't been along there as yet.
Cheers mate
