Book haul from the Book Sorting: Old books
There‘s something to be said for living in an area where the people are book lovers and hold on to books for DECADES. #ModerLibrary #Thurber and an illustrated Shaker Cook Book from 1953!
ValerieAndBooks Are you in a college town? 5y
Aimeesue @ValerieAndBooks Right outside of DC. Donations mostly come from retired Federal Employees, college profs, and former military. We get a lot of books from older people downsizing, too. 5y
Aimeesue Oh, and former Congresspersons. That's happened once or twice that I know of. 5y
ValerieAndBooks I was thinking college profs because they tend to stay put once they get tenure 🙂. The rest makes sense too. If we hadn‘t had to move as often as we did, I‘m sure my library would be twice as big 😂 5y
