Throwing away books - any alternative? - 29/09/2009 17:20
It there a better alternative home for the collected knowledge in old books besides the recycle bin?
After more than a decade, my household has finally decided to throw out the old books it has been accumulating. Primary targets include college textbooks and scientific reference material from 10 to 50 years old.
It's sad to see such founts of hard science simply go to the recycling center (and hopefully be recycled). Assuming their knowledge is outdated, I'm encouraging their demise. Maybe someone on eBay collects the stuff, but it's too much work to find that out.
Is there any hope? The books go to recycling on Saturday. Thanks.
