Re: ELEM: Books about coin collecting

[Dan Robinson <dlrbnsn2@eclipse.net>]

This is a good example where a rigid adherence to an 'old'
copyright concept for weeding works against you. Coins and coin
collecting never go out of style and old books don't have misleading
information. Newer books can add information, but older books
aren't wrong. Another area is stamp collecting. Don't throw out your
old books, but add to them. Unfortunately, I can't help with new
titles, but I'm sure that others can.
