Hi, all - it has been quite a while since I posted but have taken on a few new chores/opportunities (lol) of late.  My daughter and granddaughter gave me two large plastic bags of books that they no longer want/need.  One such book apparently was a library book (has the special wrapping and white label on the binding).  However, inside the book on the first page it is stamped "Discard".  I assume this was one of those sold in a "Friends of Library" sale - am I right?  And, if so, can I post it here?  The book is in excellent shape - no writing inside it (other than the "discard" stamp).  Please advise.  Thank you!

I don't see why not.  I've been mailing lots of ex-library books that were on wish lists.  They allow ex-library books here.

Some of my favorite books are ex- library books; especially the old ones.
