Sell them on [half.com](http://half.com) or amazon. Or drop them off at library/amvets/goodwill and log it in [itsdeductible.com](http://itsdeductible.com) for the tax writeoff.

If you have a shitload, there is a ton of software out there for the old dell axiom PDA’s, and a barcode scanner.

I have seen a guy do this before, you just scan the book barcode, and it gives a thumbs up or thumbs down if people are willing to pay anything for it on [amazon.com](http://amazon.com).

He buys the ones that are worth something for nothing then resells them.

Otherwise you can manually punch in each isbn into amazon if you don’t want to invest anything.

I’d love to take them and sell them on Amazon, but I doubt I’d have the room to transport all of them back here…
