The local libraries have been modernized,computerized,upsized.....and are open fewer hours with twice the staff of my younger days. Donated books go straight to the book sale or trash if some body doesn;t like the subject matter. Gotta make sure no non-PC books are shelved. New ,empty shelves in expanded building and more books discarded every year.

Sad.

Yes, they're always having those "Friends of the Library" sales. The most satisfying places I found to give them to were apartment buildings full of senior citizens. They reallly liked all the historical and political books, and ones that they could share with their grandkids when they came over. I think SallyAnn's was tired of seeing me drive up.
