[ISLMA-Share] Paperback Books

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Can't you sell them to the students?  Open the sale up to the community.  It looks like you are talking about a lot of books.  You could also offer them for sale on this list serv.  Perhaps there are other libraries still using them.

Subject: [ISLMA-Share] Paperback Books

I am in a dilemma and this is the best place for ideas and answers.

At the present time, our school bookstore is clearing its shelves of paperback titles that are no longer required reading.  Most of the books are new and I’d hate to just toss them.  We are hoping to sell the copies between $.75 - $1.00 each.  Any ideas of where and how to find a good source to accomplish this?

Thanks, in advance.
