I've been using Thrift for a few years. It was much more lucrative the first year. It seems there are all sorts of fees now that get subtracted before my library gets our 50% cut. It's still worth it but I'm not seeing anywhere near the money I used to get. Plus, it's over an hour drive for me.

I have tried to move our district to use this company - Thrift Books. They have a warehouse in South Windsor, so if you could get the books there, no shipping! They sort, sell, & return 50% of sale. 

Here's the contact I've been emailing:

Greetings,
     Does anyone know of an organization, other than Amazon, etc., that buys gently used library books?

Thank you,
