Gifts are in no way necessary, but if you are determined to spoil us...

Please bring a book for our growing library, inscribed with a note on why you want to share it with us.

Or, consider any of the following:

• A donation to: NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness), in either Rhode Island or your home state; the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute; or Wellness in the Schools

• Something useful, enduring, pretty, or whatever just tickles you (we've listed some ideas on Zola)
