When we moved to the Villages, I had hundreds of pounds of books and a wife screaming we will not have room for them. I had several hundred current photo books as I used to sell them and they were samples. I was disappointed that our library didn't even want them. We had a new library with many empty shelves. No interest in what I had or in making the effort.
Selling them? There are used book stores. I think you will be shocked at how little they will pay. You can give them to one of the villages libraries they all resell books. I expect with Covid not all are opened and people trapped in their homes are doing stuff like getting rid of stuff. My friend has cleaned his garage 2-3x this year. Fortunately it has not effected me.
I expect, I HOPE, covid will be over in six months and like spring after a tough snowy winter life will re-emerge. Hey not much snow in Florida. Had you lived in Syracuse with
120 inches of snow a year, it would make sense.
