A couple side-by-sides:
Shelves in the Literature/Fiction section.
Shakespeare, Not Stirred is a cocktail recipe book, with quotes.
I
cull books every so often. The hardback Anita Shreves haven't sold in a
year. Their next stop is the 33¢ Bargain Shelves; then they get boxed
up and sold to a recycler.
According to Books4Paper, "The current recycling process strips the books of their ink and turns them into a pulp that can be recycled back into paper." It's hardly green, but better than a landfill?
Not all books get culled. Those Trollopes haven't sold in a year either, but I keep classics like them on the shelf. Ditto the Star Trek books.
