I received a few PM's and sent what I could.  All the rest were donated.  Thank you.

 

I just picked up three boxes of books, most of which are older and do not have ISBN numbers.  I would be willing to give them away, if anyone is interested.  Please PM me if you are or if you have questions.  I would also be happy to combine an unpostable with a book from my bookshelf.  All of these books older, with yellow pages and some have water stains.  Please come take these books out of my house!  I will post them here until March 15 and after that they will be donated to my college's library.  I'm going to the post office tomorrow -- please PM me with any questions.  The unpostable titles are:
