You might want to check to see if your local library hosts a book sale. Our
local library
library has a volunteer group, the Friends of the Library, that organize an
annual sale in August. I give them all of our weeded books. Proceeds
benefit our community library, and any unsold books get picked up by a
used-book vendor with whom they work. Everyone benefits, and it's easy for
us.
