What a very nice gesture, but I'm going to make an alternate suggestion. Since the condition of the books are in new or very good condition, and to save you some time, effort, and money (in case you don't get reimbursed for the postage), if you donate the books to your public library, you can take a tax deduction for the full amount of the books (if you itemize your taxes). And, the additional benefits are that the books will be more widely read and you will be helping out your local library's budget during the negative economy. I'd think your town of facing financial cut backs just as mine is.

I never heard back from my e-mail message to this e-mail account you created. Did you decide to give the books away elsewhere?<BR>
