I do the same thing for my Mom, who is 80. After she's finished a book, it goes into a box for donation to either the Senior Center or the new VA. However, she decided yesterday that she doesn't want me to buy any more books from yard sales and just get them electronically either from the library or Kindle Unlimited.

I'm nearing retirement age. I may do like my dad did. He'd go around to some attic sales every saturday. He'd pick up a book or two, usually fairly new for as little as a quarter. never more than a buck. When he was finished with them they went to the community clubhouse where the residents had a fairly healthy personnal library where others dropped off and exchanged books. I'm sure in his retirement community, ebooks were not very popular.
