Staamp them WITHDRAWN also no matter what you do with them. Even if they
go into the trash. I've also heard to tear out some of the pages. Then
there is no question. And use trash in another location. Of course,
following policy.

I have weeded some of the picture book collection, and am now wondering
what
to do with the books. Originally I thought I would offer books to the
teachers, then those left to students. As I am going through these books
I
am unsure of this offering. I, myself, would not want some of these
books.
Coffee-stained, torn, but taped up pages, food smudges, etc. I am
disgusted
just touching some of them and can see why they may not have circulated.
Besides being old and boring looking they are just plain dirty. Do I put
my
personal feelings aside and set the books out for the taking and let
others
judge for themselves?

Also do you offer materials to teachers first, and then students or vice
versa. I was thinking about setting some books out during registration
on
Aug. 15 for students and parents, but the teachers don't officially come
back until the following week. Or should I wait until school begins,
offer
to the teachers, and any left over students are welcome to take. Any
advice
is appreciated.
