Maybe you don’t need to use that extra copy of Jonathan Franzen’s Freedom as a door-stop anymore? Have your family members sent you 10 copies of Cat In The Hat? Ready to part with your CD of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band because you’ve gone vinyl? Maybe you don’t want your friends to see your Pretty in Pink DVD? Our local libraries are collecting them for upcoming book sales.
