Hi. I have had multiple books listed for over a year now and no one has shown interest. I no longer have the desire or room to store them here at my home. How do I take them down from this site? THanks.

Click on your Bookshelf, click the box next to the book, scroll to the top or bottom, click Delete.

Before you nuke your bookshelf, you might consider reading the document in the Help Center called "How to get your books requested!", which has some great tips.  Since your bookshelf is set to private, I can't see what's on it to offer any more specific advice.

It may feel like that long - but, you have only been a member since 9/29/12 - so, the longest you could have had books posted is 7 1/2 months. That said, if the site isn;t working for you, Diane has given you the directions for deleting from your bookshelf.

While there is nothing wrong with setting your Bookshelf to Private; that may have had some effect on requests.
