Hi Fiona
We used
Better World Books
http://www.betterworldbooks.co.uk/
this summer. They supplied the boxes and collected them - and there
were a lot! They sell what they can with the proceeds being split
between you and a literacy charity. What can't be sold goes to recycling

Subject: Charitable Book Donation
Hi,
I wonder if anyone could supply me with contact information for any
charities that might be interested in a large donation of books that
would be suitable for distribution to academic libraries, overseas
perhaps?
Thanks,
Fiona
