Anyone have suggestions of what to do with several boxes of nearly new , mostly hardcover books? Many Readers Digest condensed books,fiction,some reference. The library doesn't want them, nor do the two nursing homes in our area. I refuse to throw away books, but they are taking up space and my sister doesn't want them.

Send them to New Orleans' libraries. We lost hundreds of thousands of books due to Hurricane Katrina.

During my visits in Brisbane, Australia, I usually went to some charity shops selling nearly every used/second-hand books and things, some items were never used. I think you may contact some churches and inform those in charge on the books, it should be a good idea to donate them since some avid readers are waiting for their favorite titles.

See if you have a chapter of Freecycle in your community. You can join and offer just about anything to other members.
