I talked to Mindy as I know we have advertised. She said one AG said we could just sell them as long as the revenue went back into library accounts. Then another library asked their AAG who said we need to advertise in paper to reach local K-12 school districts.
We do a general announcement in paper to let schools know we are having a sale and they can schedule appointment if they would like to see our (out of date/old) books. Nobody ever responds. There was action in the LLC to bring this matter to the state board
and try to get a more reasonable ruling. I guess somebody who recently retired was starting to work on this issue. </div>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I know we have discussed this before, but I am having a heckuva time finding the state statutes that govern selling state resources. I’ve got
<a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=28A.335.180">28A.335.180</a> that says we need to notify school districts
<i>via widely circulated newspaper </i>before we declare that our book are surplus; and
<a href="https://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=43.19.1919">43.19.1919</a> which seems to say that we can sell stuff and put the money back into whatever fund paid for it (although there is a note about the 28A rule). Dickens nailed it when he wrote
about the <a href="https://www.panarchy.org/dickens/circumlocution.html">Circumlocution Office</a>. </span></p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">We are doing a major weed, and I would love to have a book sale. Or, I would like to donate the books to our foundation, and then have a book sale. I am going to run it
by our VPI and legal department, but if anyone has more to add, I’d be grateful.
