Hi guys, Hope you all are doing good. I am doing good too. As you know, I love reading and hence have lot of books at home which I have bought from time to time. I have kept some books with myself and others I have donated. Especially I had donated my MBA books to our library here in Surat. As I had completed it, I thought of giving it away so that other students can benefit from it. What about you guys, do you donate books or keep it to yourself. Kindly let me know. Have a good day! Take care!!

My house is full of bookshelves and books. We all love reading. Yes, I have donated few of my course books and tutorials and also some that my children have outgrown. But there are few I can't part away with. So we have enough. I keep the books that are special, that can be used for my classes and those that help as a guide for my profession as special educator and counselor.

@Rashnag I have few of them from my college time. Those old classics. Now my elder one picks them to read. So good that I didn't give them away. Are you into Kindle reading? That's the trend these days but I have still not started with it.

I used to donate them when I was in school. My kids don't donate them but keep them to refer them in future.

I had to donate a bunch of books when I moved because I didn't want to move them and I wanted to have more space. I don't like to collect too many books, don't have the space.

Novels i keep and don’t donate. But my son’s text books, i was planning to donate it last year when my former high school teacher told me she needed books in the library. But pandemic came and i wasn’t able to do that since all schools and libraries are close anyway. I think I’ll do that when it reopens.
