Must Move Reference & Other Nerdy Books

Community,

I am a pack rat, a book-loving pack rat. I have dated literary criticism volumes, history and literary volumes, I'm not likely to read but the used bookstore won't take them and the library says they'll recycle them (I was horrified! A library was saying they would toss old volumes of Contemporary Literary Criticism).

I'm going to list a few here. I need to move these but I can't bare the idea of them being trashed. Please write me if you're interested in any of the following:
Understanding the Holocaust Vol 1 UXL
Voices of the Holocuast Vol 1 UXL
Isabel Allende: Twayne's World Authors Series
Margaret Atwood Revisted:
Twayne's World Authors Series
Modern American Literature Vol 1-2 St. James Press
Poetry Criticism Vol 12 Gale Publishing
Contemporary Literary Criticism (variety of volumes) Gale Publishing
Hispanic American: Genealogical Sourcebook
Literary Masterpieces: The Sound and the Fury Vol 6 Gale Publishing
Black Writers: A Selection of Sketches from Contemporary Authors Gale Group
The Valiant Women of The Vietnam War by Karen Zeinert
Poetry for Students Vol 1 Gale Group
Poetry for Students Vol 6 Gale Group
American Writers IV Scribners

Where's the love?

Well, I don't want any but I know what you mean. I have quite a few books I don't want anymore but I can't stand the idea of just dumping them! And they are also books the used bookstore doesn't want. You just keep thinking that somewhere in the world there is someone who would want these so much! How do we find them?!!!

What a generous thing to do! I'm a pack rat myself and am trying to thin out but I'm sure you'll find good homes for all of these!

So nice of you. I would really like the Atwood if you'd ship overseas (I'd pay the shipping if you can provide a way for me to do that). Get me at bakerjodie at googlemail dot com
