These were not official library books. What don't you fools not understand? They get books dumped on them that have nothing to do with college. This is NOT a public library understand? So when something is dropped off on their steps, they don't have any reason to add them to their already full shelves that are books for the students to use for their education. Please get a grip and get in reality.

There is some sort of rule about the oldest copyright can only be seven years old in libraries that want a certain accreditation. I cannot remember all the specifics since it has been at least five years since I learned about this. Most of the time schools do put the books out for free. But if there was water damage, then mold and mildew is right behind and those books are now a health hazard.

Maybe that would have taken effort and planning. If they literally ordered and paid for so many products they were not going to use I don’t see why they would be competent enough to find them a better home. Waste is common in all places of life and in all industries. Could also be a PR stunt. But donating anything in large amounts can be hard (and here they seem to not have put in any effort). Must be awful when libraries or book shops close down too. Even selling the books to an online store would be less waste at that point.

Well, I'm not from Florida so I am confused. I thought they banned graphically explicit books (except the Bible). And I thought librarians could be arrested for allowing certain books to be checked out, or even perused. But you also get fired for throwing out the banned books? Seems like librarians in Florida are going to get jailed or fired for whatever they do. By the way, when I was a teacher, I tossed a hundred physics books. Not because I didn't believe in physics, but I had to make room for newer books. I would imagine there is a way bit of difference in an LGBTQ book published in the 20th century vs one published today.

You didn’t want to tell anyone you were getting rid of them because you knew it would stir up controversy that’s why they did this without telling a soul.
