[CASL-L] book donation help

[Zieger, Gillian]

Since I'm hearing mixed info on them....they wanted to charge me $200 to
pick up (apparently their policy, unless your books are all text books);
however, another librarian on here said she had no pick-up fee.
Can anyone weigh in on this?  If their fee structure is inconsistent, I may
have to call them out on it!
