[Michlib-l] Left Over Book Sale Books

[Lois Keel]

Bibliomaniac that I am, I've noticed this question pop up from time to 
time.  Contact <BetterWorldBooks.com> which will not only sell them, but 
use money to support various literacy projects.  I haven't contacted 
them from the library end as so far I've found local ways to recycle, 
but have bought a lot from them and many of their books are ex libris.  
 From what I recall on the list, there's a way to get a local pick-up .
