While some of us at Chicagoist are more exhibitionist than a Kim Kardashian sex tape, we can all get behind the new public service campaign from non-profit social venture Open Books.

Bring out your books, it’s the Chicago Reader’s annual Book Swap! Remember when you went through that The Secret phase? Now’s the time to offload load it on the next unsuspecting fool. [Ed. note: Or,, you could pass on your well-thumbed DFW collection of short stories too ... you don't wanna turn the kids OFF of reading, right?]

The Chicago Reader's at it again with it's strangely placed but well intentioned Book Swap. The swqap will be held tomorrow at Cobra Lounge, you can bring all your winter books to trade in for some summer reads. The Janes, who tout themselves as "Chicago's Premiere 60's Go Go Troupe," will perform. The first 300 participants get free tote bags.
