I either sell them or donate them to my local library or goodwill.

I have just gone through the kid's books and will put them out at a garage sale this spring.  Any leftovers will go to goodwill.  I have such a hard time parting with books!

I like to save my books. I have realized I have too many so I give them away to my friends now to read after I read them. I give them to places that have nothing like homes for the mentally ill etc.

It is hard to get rid of books! I have 2 or 3 shelves that I dedicate to the 'keepers' but once it gets full I force myself to weed them out!

I have a hard time getting rid of my books, as I love to read.  The ones I can part with I donate to local charities and the library.  :)

I donate many of my books to the library for them to use or sell.  I also give them away to friends to cheer them up when they're sick and also take them to the nursing homes for the residents to enjoy.

I donate some, sell some, swap and lend many.
