Some of us keep each and every book we enjoy, with the thought that we might re-read it again someday, or that our children/grandchildren might do the same. My own love of literature began with my grandfather's library, and it is a legacy worth remembering.
If you feel compelled to clean out your once-read volumes, and donate them to some sort of charity, I applaud your generosity... but should you belittle others for not doing likewise, your shortsightedness is rather likely to undermine any perceived credibility you might have otherwise attained.
