Work is depressing. I've been asked to come up with a plan for reducing the library square footage by half, together with an impact statement about what we lose if we follow through. This place is my baby, and I look around and try to identify 1/2 of the collection (at least in linear shelf space terms) to throw away. Would you throw away half your family? Would your choices change if you knew you were going to be second-guessed by Uber-Boss, but Uber hasn't responded to your memo requesting input?

Only thing I can possibly suggest is to do what you do with family members you cannot care for yourself - find someone else who will care for them as if they were family themselves....

Scadian Tag Sale? Donate half of the collection to the EK Travel Fund?

Could you Imagine Liam trying to sell off books by the ton-load?
