A little off topic but I thought this group may have some ideas.
So I'm in the middle of gradually retiring and I'm cleaning out my electronics engineering office. I have a many dozen technical books I've collected over the years and I need to get rid of many of them. I have anything from quality control to engineering management to circuits design to software development to running a business. These are not college text books but ones I've acquired over the years.
My local library doesn't want them as technical books have a limited audience and they just have to shuffle them around.
Goodwill will take them but I'm afraid I'm just making them pay for disposing a good portion of them.
A nearby used book shop doesn't want technical books.
>> Any ideas? How did you deal with your book collection? <<
Some random examples
Juran's Quality Control Handbook
Nolo's "Corporate Records" and "Patent it Yourself", fairly recent
Statecharts in C/C++
Transients in Power Systems
American Electrician's Handbook
Printed Circuits Design
Various books on Linux and Embedded Linux
