Hi people, I have approximately 150 assorted books which I have no longer have a use for. I have read them all and now just need to get rid of them. Apparently recycling will not accept them because of the glue in the spine. Any ideas? Cheers Keith

    Who knew reading was so bad for the environment. :shock: I didn't realise glued books couldn't be recycled, thought it was just the sewn type.  Assumed the glue would just melt and be removed at the 'sludge' stage of paper recycling.
