This is a slightly unusual problem!

I have more than 50 O’Reilly books covering most aspects of linux. I haven’t tried to value them but I think they cost well over a thousand pounds to buy over the years.

I’m of an age where I’m trying to reduce possessions and I no longer need these books. It seems a pity just to throw them away, I don’t want to sell them and they’re probably too specialised for charity shops, so I’m looking for suggestions. I’m in Bedford and it’s not really feasible to post them anywhere. Is there any group or library that might appreciate them and make some use of them?

Or should I just accept that books are past their time and put them all in the recycling?

Any bright ideas welcome!

Mike.
