Donating/Getting rid of old textbooks
Is there anywhere in hamilton to donate my textbooks? I have tried selling them all year long (amazon, titles, kijiji, on campus) but no one wants them. I would rather not throw them in the recycle bin but theres no way i'm lugging them around after I graduate in a couple weeks. Any thoughts? I've also checked the public library and they dont accept used books

you could post them on kijiji under 'free' and im sure someone would be able to take them off your hands and possibly put them to good use. or maybe you could donate them to like value village or salvation army or some place like that?

I'm pretty sure there's a donation box just outside Titles, or go in and ask them about textbook donation. I think that'd be best to retire those ole' textbooks of yers.
