Hi Robin. This situation also occurs in larger academic libraries, like ours. We do have an ongoing book sale for our students and faculty with such materials. You might consider just keeping a table or cart of books available to the congregation, asking them for a small donation or telling them to help themselves. I also have developed a list of places that I know will accept donations or might even purchase books from us. I'm attaching it so that you can get some ideas from it.
Please send me a summary of the responses you get. I'd like to post it on the AJL Wiki, http://ajlwiki.pbworks.com/w/page/1636998/FrontPage, so that when it comes up again there will be answers ready. Thanks.
