[CALIBK12] Great books and Harvard classics

[Hedstrom, Pat]

Pick out titles that you would not want to have to buy, give the rest to the kids!  Or teachers.  I know a librarian in Wyoming who gave the whole set to a kid that expressed interest. He was surprised but delighted, when she said to him, "Do you want them?"  We got our books free with an Ency Brit purchase but that was at another school 10 years ago. And I bet no one has checked them out either.

Does anyone still have in their high school collection the Great Books of the Western World or the Harvard Classics?  We are in a dilemma on whether we should keep them or weed.  It has been many years since anyone has checked them out or even looked at them.
Thank you for your help,

Have they been "marketed"?
