[ISLMA-Share] books in foreign languages

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I'm weeding the 400s in my high school library, and I'm a little at a loss
at what to do with a large-ish collection of books in foreign languages.
Obviously we will keep the dictionaries, and I do keep a current collection
of modern young adult novels in Spanish for our Spanish-speaking students.
I'm talking about old books (I don't honestly even know what most of them
are about) in German, French, and Spanish. When I weeded that section a
while back, we made the decision to delete the books from our system, but
keep them on the shelves in case any of the foreign language teachers
wanted to use them. (Basically, I just passed the buck to myself six years
in the future).
Do any of you in high school libraries keep books such as these, or is
there a place for them anymore in a collection? They literally have not
moved in the ten years I've been here.
Thanks! :)
