Thank you for the discussion on weeding. I feel much better about the = MAJOR "pruning" I am doing this semester. The first year I was here = (1994) I discarded over 2,000 volumes. "Someday man will get to the = moon", biographies on people that no one had ever heard of, geography = titles from the 60's, Jane Stewardess of Airwaves, and things of that = nature. I had no problems I even stacked the books in a display case = until it was full to show we were updating the library. We did sneak them = into the trash at a warning of someone, I asked the custodian when the = dumpster was emptied and had my student assistants put them in that = morning. Two years ago when we moved to the new building I did it again = while splitting my 7-12 to a 5-8 and 9-12. Not as many books. This year I am doing a serious How OLD is it? Did I buy it (it's my = tenth year)? If not why is it here? Has it been checked out since the = move (2 years)? It is embarrassing to say I am only to the 700's and=20 I have filled 2 stacks of boxes as tall as me! I can't help but consider the cost! But after reading all the posts I know = I am doing the right thing! We are donating to the public library's used book sale. I hope we don't = have any problems with that!
