I've donated old computer books to the Scottsdale Public Library. Problem is 
that they only accept donations with 'no strings attached' so there is no 
guarantee that they will actually get put on the shelf.

It would be nice to see all this stuff be available to the public at large. 
Maybe one of the community college libraries could set aside a section. It 
could even included distros and other GPLed software.
