What to do with old Encyclopaedias



Create a montage of interesting pages, glue to an old coffee table, varnish. Or better still purchase some old pub-type tables and do the same. Advertise on e-bay and make a fortune.

Or wallpaper a room with them

Or use them to secretly store valuables.

Or a gun.
 
If they're leather bound and a full set in good condition there are plenty full sets on eBay that have gone for between £100-225. Just check the solds.

I have a full set of Brittanica from 1990s. Never really been used and much of the content now out of date. Any Ideas on best way to get rid of them (without tipping them).

I ve loads of beautifully bound reference books and maps etc from the 70s and earlier Being a school swat I spent hours reading them - so wonderfully drawn and presented - it’s almost like an adventure .

Out of date of course but I simply can’t bear to chuck them - I just can’t .
