I've been throwing a bunch of out-of-date technical books out recently and will continue to do so, I'll hang on to many, as well as many fiction and non-fiction books, but I suspect their time is numbered as well as my ebook library grows and replaces them.

Shouldn't we be recycling our obsolete reference manuals? Although burning them for warmth is fine. I would suggest taking any general fiction/nonfiction and leaving it in public spaces for the public to peruse at their leisure.
