Recycling Used Books

In a college setting, once a professor stops using a particular book that book looses all it's value to the university. The same goes for k-12 books. Often a school system will require teachers to use a specific book, but on occasion teachers can choose the books they would like to teach with. Once a teacher stops using that particular book, the school no longer wants them and can sell them to companies like ours. In turn, we resell them to schools that are still using them. If the book is too old, and we can not find schools that are still using them we sell them to a recycle unit to be made into something new. Once a book has become "recyclable material" it has pretty much lost all of it's value. Most often this happens to older books that schools simply do not use anymore. Sometimes it happens because of damage to the book that can not be repaired by rebinding. Recycling is important because it keeps prices low and helps our environment.
