Good afternoon all,

I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions regarding what they have done with pulled/withdrawn bound periodicals?  We are getting ready to pull a bunch of bound titles and I did not want to dump them in the trash if I can help it.  I have looked into a few businesses and no one wants them (all JSTOR covered titles).  Has anyone found a company/organization or solution that would avoid putting these into the garbage?  Has anyone taken the binding off and recycled the text block?  I haven’t done a large-scale withdrawal so any/all help is welcome!!

Any suggestions or experiences are much appreciated.  I thank you all in advance for your help. 

Please email me off list, thanks!

Cheers,
