Visiting the Post Office

The post office is an important place in a community. It's where you can send or pick up a package, buy postage to send mail, and where you might get a photograph taken for your passport before traveling abroad. Due to changes in how mail is sent and received, readers may be less familiar with a contemporary post office and its day-to-day operations. This volume shows what happens in the local post office and helps readers understand the significance of this important community landmark.
