I also gave up lending (other than immediate familY years ago.

However, when we moved from an apartment to a house 3 years ago, I purged about half my collection. and I've done it twice more because we keep adding more children's books, so my books get shoved out of the bookcase. :P

I give away to friends, donate to the library or recycle, depending on condition, and subject matter.

I'm down to 2-3 boxes of my childhood p-books I'm storing for the kids or am sentimentally attached to, a few favorite series in hardcover, and a small stack of gift books that I don't have the interest in reading in p-book form, but aren't available in e-book. Eventually, when they've collected enough dust or come out in e-book, I'll donate those, too.
