alittleheadache:johndarnielle:How to make me crySadly, these donation boxes are super shady! (Maybe that was actually JD’s point, but I will elaborate for the sake of any and all interested readers.) They’re connected to multiple mystery organizations where no one will talk to reporters, including a mystery recycling company (which makes the promise never to take the books to “a landfill” suddenly more ominous). In addition to diverting donations from local orgs, the boxes have a tendency to accumulate piles of stuff out on the sidewalk since they don’t get emptied often enough by the mystery organization.Dear friends, your books don’t want to go to the mystery recycling center in Aurora! They want to go to your local public library’s bookstore to find new homes, raise money for your local public library, and give you a tax deduction. They also said thanks and they love you. (Other destinations your books mentioned include hospitals, domestic violence shelters, free children’s book projects, and prison literature projects. Those are some pretty cool books you’ve raised there.) -- source link
