| These are adult history and non fiction books so I don't think I can put them in a little free library. Any other ideas on what to do with them? So far I have just been keeping them. |

If you are reading books you don’t want to own, stop buying and start borrowing. I only own books I love, buying them after I’ve read them a first time. Everything i read is borrowed from the library (in person or Libby).

| Plenty of history and non fiction books in the Little Libraries around me. They’ll be picked up by someone. |

+1 Our little free libraries are all for adults in my neighborhood! Mostly chick lit and Oprah picks from what I can tell, checked out by all the dog walkers. |

| you can put those in little free libraries - they mostly take a whole range of books. I'd try not to burden one with too many though. I used to drive around town putting 2-3 in each one, so as not to over-burden. They were mainly fiction though. |

| LFLs in my DC neighborhood are all nerd books all the time, lol. Lots of history, politics, international relations theory. So DC! |

| I trade them in at McKay's used books for store credit and get myself some more books. You can get cash, too, though. |

| I return them to the library where I borrowed them. I don’t buy books. |

| I only buy books from our Friends of the Library book sale. When I'm finished with them, I donate them back, unless I really want to keep them (not usually). |
