Donating Books

A recent newspaper had an article about finding homes for 

our old "friends": books.  Some of the places on the list

pick up books, some you have to ship to but it is a nice 

list to save for future reference.  The point is to 
keep the books out of the landfill.

Don't forget about your local used/rare bookstore.  They 

will sometimes take donations of books that they can't purchase. 

Remember, used bookstores don't receive tax money like libraries do, 

so if you have a local used bookstore - that PAYS taxes, I suggest 

going there first with your donations.
