The library here has quite a few paperback books.

This is a book oriented town.The Friends of the Library have a monthly sale of donated books that book dealers from as far as 50 miles away send their minions to try to snap up anything valuable. They politely accept anything book like. I have no idea how much goes straight to recycling. I wouldn't be surprised if everything gets at least one chance to be bought by someone for 50 cents.
