Re: Donation of Paperbacks w/cut covers

[Chesterfield School Library <Chest.Sch.Lib@TOP.MONAD.NET>]

Used books stores often cut off part of the cover on books that
they won't let you trade in after you read them. They are usually
3 or 4 for $1. I have never heard of stores cutting off part of the
cover when they are taken off the shelf. They have to send back
the whole cover for credit.On the PR side of this, how upset will they
be if you don't use any of them in the Library? Is it worth
buying paperback covers for those you can use?
