[LM_NET] Optimum Fate of old "National Geographic Magazines"

["DILLARD, NANCY" <DILLARDN@MTNBROOK.K12.AL.US>]

Our K-6 elementary school library has a collection of "National Geographic 
Magazines" dating from 1964-present.  Space constraints prevent the continued 
storage of these items on site.  I am requesting advice on their removal or 
disposal.  Are they a valuable resource to be saved?  For whom and for what 
purpose?  Any suggestions as to the dispensation of these magazines will be 
appreciated.  It seems a waste to simply put them in the recycling bin.
Thank you,
