[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work for a nonprofit and the only thing worse than people trying to sell junk is people trying to donate junk. As if we should just shut up and be grateful. I used to work for a university with a very prominent architecture program. A woman called and asked if we'd like 50 years of back issues of Architectural Digest because "maybe the architecture students would be interested in reading them." Well, one, they were studying architecture in 2010, not architecture in 1960. And two, if they wanted to see pictures of old architecture they could...google? Idk why this hoarder thought a university could benefit from what clearly just needed to be thrown out.[/quote] Universities and libraries can and do take old magazines. It sounds like she was trying to be helpful even if she wasn't. [/quote] Redirect them to donate to public school art teachers.[/quote]
