<p class="x_MsoNormal">I disposed of ~2000 books from my parents' library across the 50+ little free libraries that cover the Hill. If you need help with your book disposal project let me know. I am happy to help because I suspect if you try to get rid of
your books through used bookshops or the library they will just be tossed.</p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">The used book shop at Eastern Mkt will take titles that are resell-able, and even pay a little bit. Otherwise donate to any DC public library- they generally hold for their periodic culling sales and use the
proceeds to support library programs. After that, unfortunately, unsold books get pulped. There’s also the option of giving to the Salvation Army or a retirement home. If you have special sub-collections, there are other options. I gave my naval history and
navigation books e.g. to a local NROTC unit and my Russian language books to a college student majoring in Russian. Good luck- I feel your pain!</p>
