[AISLE-Share] Weeded books

[Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators]

There is also an organization in Glen Ellyn called SCARCE.  They will take
anything and either offer it to other educators for free or re-purpose
them.  SCARCE even take old metal objects like combination locks, old
broken crayons, electronic equipment, etc.  Everything is reused, recycled,
or re-purposed.  Fantastic organization!
