Value of 1968 Compton's Encyclopedia?Hi! I have an incomplete set of 1968 Compton's Encyclopedias (basically 3 eighths of the complete set), of which I own volumes 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17, of which I do not have volumes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24, thus 5 eighths of it. I do not have which put that into perspective. I have 15 out of the 22 1985 World Books. So, are there any listings of the volumes I do not have? Because, I'd like to have all of the volumes.

What To Do With Older Books?I have several hardback books that belonged to my mom. They are from 1933 to about 37. There is Louisa May Alcott, 2 written by her, Heidi, Hans Christan Anderson, and Treasure Island, among others. I am reading them all again and it's like reading them for the first time, but I don't really want to keep them after I've read them. I hate the thought of throwing them out. We have a box for book donations but I feel funny putting them there. Any ideas appreciated.
