>I have shelves of technical books, dating back to 200?, some .NET, XML, and others. I don't think I will ever read or even use them as a reference (since I read mostly eBooks). Do you think it would be worthwhile to look for a book-donation bin? They used to have these in some places but lately I don't see them around where I live; although I could probably find one within 20 miles or so. Or, more practical would be just simply put these books in the paper recycling bin?

I've given a lot of books to the Salvation Army before -- although I don't know if dated tech books would be of any use to them or not.
