Free to good home (you pay shipping):

Hi Peter.

Just in case that nobody want some book, I will like to advice you to please do not throw them to the dumpster. Please send them over to the Internet Archive Book Drive. It may take some time until they scan those, but at least those will be preserved.

Maybe we can work out the shipping cost of the remaining books to the Internet Archive.

Regards
