Books: Keep, Loan, Sell, Give away
A couple weeks ago I wrote about having to whittle down my book collection. With much difficulty, I have decided which books I am ready to get rid of.
Most of these are available
I basically have created 4 lists. I have The Keepers that are staying with me, The Give Aways that are up for grabs, The Sellers that are being listed on Amazon and The Indefinite Loaners which are those books I want to keep, but can’t take with me.
The books that are listed as Give Aways are free to take as long as you will use them. The represent a smorgasboard of reading: everything from real life adventure stories to Christian reference. We can arrange for you to pick them up or ship them if you are interested.
The books that are listed under Indefinite Loaners are books that I want to keep in my collection, but probably won’t be able to use when we move to Swaziland. I want to make sure they have a good home. They are yours until I may need them again (probably in 5-10 years) but again, only only if you will use them.
The books I have down as For Sale are being listed on Amazon. These are books that have been helpful to me, but still have a decent market value. I have included the going rate for each of these. Funds generated from these books will go towards our move to Swaziland (which is after all the reason I am selling these books). Here is the deal though, if you as my friends and family have a use for one of these books, I would gladly pass it along to you. But, I would ask that you consider making a donation to help pay for our move.
Sound good?
Here is a list of the lists:
I have also included an embedded version of the Sellers since those are generally the most significant:
