Washington Irving - complete works 1850 -- needs a home.
We have a complete set of Washington Irving's works -- dated about
1850. Not in perfect shape (at least one book has a partly separated binding) but quite readable. We're looking for a home for these. Is there a place that would want them? Otherwise we'll drop them by the local used bookstore, where they're most likely to end up in the trash. We're not looking for money -- though it would be good to cover the cost of shipping. They've been in my wife's family for some years so we'd like a home for them. meta: jfaughnan, books, donation, homeless |
I am Perry Cox, Director for Books for the Nations, a project of the
National Heritage Foundation. We are a non-profit 501(3). Our current project is building a library collection for The Tamina Community Center named the Tamina Community Library. I have a question as to the number of volumes in the collection and the amout of shelving required. The project is listed on our site at http://www.booksforthenations.org Do you have an estimate of the shipping cost? We are a very small non-profit project and all funding has come from my wife and I. Would you consider the shipping as a contribution to a non-profit as a tax-deduction? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks, Perry Cox John Faughnan wrote: We have a complete set of Washington Irving's works -- dated about 1850.
