A public library in Maryland held a fundraiser that left a lasting impression

RACHEL MARTIN, HOST:

Book lovers had a chance to get literary-themed tattoos from Lucky Bird tattoo shop. Forty percent of the proceeds went towards funding for the county libraries. The event definitely made a mark. There are already talks of future tattoo fundraisers. Lots of people get a serpent on their arm - I'm thinking the very hungry caterpillar. It's MORNING EDITION.
