As I say “weeding makes a healthy garden”

‘We’re not a museum we’re a library’ —mine still seems more like a museum but I’m getting closer to a current library.

Teachers get mad when I have to throw away outdated, moldy, or unrepairable books. It makes me sad too, but they aren’t useful and can be harmful.

Weeding is my favorite tbh. The amount of books about buying a home that I found from pre-2008 was ASTONISHING.

I have to throw away five “dead” books a day, each in a different trash can around my school. People still pull them out of the trash and try to return them. 😜

You explained that great to non librarians! I love weeding. If it’s non-fiction I went by 10 years.

I just saw a video of a librarian who looked up the last people to check out old books that hadn't been checked out in 10 years the kids were graduating so she sent them to the last kids to check them

Next door to purchase public library is the Public Library Reading Room, books the schools and the public library have 'weeded'

I have a teacher in my HS who debates me on anything I'm weeding. He can't seem to understand that there are reasons books can't live on shelves forever and ever.

The non useful books could go to crafters. Lots of people use old books for projects. Like crystal books and modge podge projects. Paper mache
