how to dispose of books

[spqrzilla]

Thrift stores or Friends of the Library groups may have a book sale that they collect for. Example: Aurora's Friends of the Library store is located at NW corner of Peoria and Iliff.

My wife knows of several libraries that take them. They have periodic book sales to raise money and sell the used books.

Libraries don't take books- if they do, they have to destroy them. I'd post them on Craiglist or if you have a local FB group in your neighborhood, there may be someone wiling to take them off your hands.

What sorts of subjects do they cover? I may be interested.

TheGray & Irving: Mostly general business mgt I believe. I'll take an inventory tonight and I'll report back here before I do anything.
Gman: If your better half could get me a list of those librarys that accept book donations for resale that would be great.

I just gave about 5 years of National Geographic to a library in Longmont.

A firm of lawyers, Equal Justice, is to write to Obama and the ambassadors of more than 200 countries in which “Top Gear” airs to ask them to consider the evidence, and then decide if the series should continue to be broadcast in their countries, the Guardian has reported.

You guys are right- I forgot about library book sales!
I know libraries won't accept books to go on the shelves, and some libraries have no room to store donated books. It's best to call and confirm first.

[KestrelBike]

sometimes the public library won't admit to accepting them, so you gotta "baby in a basket" ditch them at their doorstep.
