    Were they in the fiction or horror section?

    Lmao, they should have been but they were in the nonfiction/self-help/religious section.

    "Libraries get many donated books from estates, people who don't want them, etc. The library here has used book sales several time a year, raising funds by selling off duplicates and items they don't have enough shelf space to hold. ..."

    Hmmm.... So that's what happened when I donated that pristine, hard-backed copy of "Crisis of Conscience" to my local library - copyright 2004, no less!!

    And here I thought that some JW working at the library must have derailed my efforts to get it placed on the shelves - "shelved"...

    However, I've looked for this book in our multi-city - almost state-wide - library catalog... There's only ONE COPY available for over a million people!!! And it has to be "specially requested", in most cases...

    I got several finds that way, including the older hard cover Revelation Climaxxx (spiritual porn), Childrens book of Bible stories, and two versions of Live Forever. One has oldlite on page 179 and the other has newlite. It is fun to open them side by side.

    I volunteer in a op shop 1/2 day a week and was surprised to see about a doz. video tapes from the wt society that came in . I decided the next week I was on, I would get rid of them,when I came in again a week later , I found that another volunteer had beaten me to the punch,and sent them to the tip.
