Hi All,

At the Western Kentucky University Libraries, we are having quite a 
problem disposing of our withdrawn books. Local recycling does not want 
them and neither does our institutional surplus.   We sell a lot at the 
annual library sale and we send some of our unwanted gifts to 
BetterWorld Books, but does anyone have any other creative ideas?
