"We are going through a process of weeding quite a few outdated books from our
shelves. Many of those books have dedicated bookplates in them from 30, 40, even
50 years ago. What respectful ideas are there for dealing with these dedicated
books that we want to remove from the library?"
When the Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital in Hanover NH tore down its old facility
and replaced it with a gleaming new one, they mounted the plaques that had commemmorated
donations to the old building on the wall of the new building's lobby, with a
sign reading something like "A tradition of support". Perhaps you could take the
old bookplates and make them into a poster that would convey the same message.
