I have another question regarding my weeding of the 970's.  Some of the
books that I am weeding are very old (pre-1930's even pre-1900s!). A check
of some used book sites on the web indicates that some may be of value. One
set is selling for $300 to $600. Are these books sellers just trying to find
a sucker to pay big bucks for old books or is it possible to get real people
to pay serious money for them.

If so how do you sell such books? How much should the book be worth in order
to make it worth the trouble? What procedures, if any, does your school
district require you to follow?
