Am in a bit of a quandary as to what to do with the paperbacks. My local used bookstore has stopped taking pre2007 and obviously I have quite a few of those.
Is the money important to you or is donation ok with you? If you need cash, consider offering it as a lot on Craigslist. Alternatively, have a garage sale and advertise it well as such (especially true for scifi & fantasy).

If money is not important, I've donated books for 'take a book, leave a book' at hospitals (areas where they do infusion therapies), county jail, senior retirement community, senior center for my city to give a few ideas. My mom's final batch of paperbacks will all be going to the senior retirement community as they have a tough time getting 'guy' type books.

If you want to try swapping some books out in order to obtain other paperbacks that aren't in ebook format, you can join paperbackswap.com. If you do, list me as a reference (QuiltedKnitter). Since we traded off far more paperbacks than we want back, most of my credits go to swapadvd.com for movies.
