what do you do with used books?

[ggirl]

I have tonnes to get rid of.
have decided to declutter the house and books are the first to go
needs to be done in a quickish fashion or I will end up procrastinating and never getting rid of them

will charity shops accept boxes and boxes of them?

Yes they will, at least in my experience.

great idea about asking if they collect!! thanks
will seek out some boxes next week

yes they will, but also your local library may, we have a community run library since the council closed ours and they were delighted with all my iain rankin's and john grishams.

Freecycle is also good

hmm wonder if they'll come and take them off the actual shelves for me

There's a collection thingy at my supermarket. I put them in there.

Might the local hospital take them?
