What to do with old course books

blueyedson · 2009-09-21 17:24:46

Hello there, I've just come to the end of a 2nd open uni course and about to start another. I'm not sure what to do with old course materials, don't have space to keep all. One is in intro to IT ,another in design. Any sugestions...anywhere to sell or take them as donation ?

I did S104 Jan-Oct this year, but interrupted to start again in October, and now I'm left with a duplicate set of books.

Your local library might take them? If not, sell them. They won't get much on the likes of eBay but you could be helping someone who's lost their copy.

There is an online shop associated with the Open University where you can buy and sell OU course books. I've never used it so dunnno if it's any good or not.
