Old Books - what do you do with them?

ajmat · 1st July 2006, 13:21

Folks

Want to get rid of various books, some old, some new - novels, management books all sorts of stuff. How does one get rid of them. Would prefer to give to someone who would appreciate as opposed to someone who would merely make money of them

Any suggestions where to give/donate would be appreciated

Anything to do with automobiles can be sent this way!

Management books are welcome here..

I donate my old books to our college library, my old books normally look brand new

Cheers

Major

Ajmat, didn't I tell you this? Your collection of auto mags can go to Dippy but a good share of that should reach Rtech also....Anyway you see how to reach them in Bombay and we'll see the how the fight goes between Rtech and Dippy..

id love to see what books you want to part with , like mentioned put up the titles please and id also be more than happy to pay for the shipping if i want the books ,
you could also think of donating to a nearby library , thats what we used to do when my dad was still in the army and the books were too many to carry to the next station .......

I have a lot of Auto Magazines. Mostly Overdrive, quite a few Autocar and BS Motoring, Top Gear, Auto India and if I look around maybe even a couple of the "Indian Auto Journal" and "Car & Bike International". Anyone interested? I'm in Goa. Just drop by and take whatever you like.
