[QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 2988839, member: 136"]During the years I worked in a library, this is indeed what we sometimes had to do. Not EVERY book is worth saving, especially if it's out-of-date non-fiction (science and technology, for instance.) We used a box cutter to remove the hardback covers, trashed them, and recycled the inner pages with the "regular" paper recycling. Sometimes, this was PAINFUL to do - but in truth, it is sometimes also necessary![/QUOTE]
