would rather give them to a library, school or charity ... any thoughts (other than just to a charity shop - which is my plan B)

Join freecycle and offer them in your local area. They ask that you give preference to charities.

I would give them to a school or a library. I don't like giving anything to charity's. No matter how much you give, they still need more. Its like throwing something out the window.

Call the hospitals and see if they have a library in there, I know the Sloan Kettering in New York does, and are always looking for donations of books. Check out Assisted Living facility's, They can use them. Salvation Army Shelters,

There is a University which is being opened in uganda called Mutesa Royal University, they are receiving books from well wishers you can plan to send them to Uganda, to Buganda Kingdom which is the owner of the University. Please help them because they really need them to make a good library

If they are good books, you could donate them to the local library so that others may enjoy them.

libraries can be the best place as the number and the quality of people using them will be great
