Not sure of the forum but my current employer has facility/arrangement with librarywala.com.
You can visit them and give a try.
It has a donate option that probably is not worth much. Are there any sites where you can simply sell the books at may be 50% of the MRP?
Such as?
That is what I am trying to crowdsource over here as well?

I would love to do that... got some books that I'd love to exchange... or we could probably start like a lending library here, similar to the IVG Game Library?
Will this exchanging be of much worth ?
I mean, the paperbacks are normally low value (~200-600 inr range) items and ebooks are easily available for most of the popular books.
For me, I normally like to collect books. I buy more than I read (hoping someday I will have time for that )

Real readers turn up their noses at ebooks
But yeah, personally I've never been able to get into ebooks as much as physical copies.

I donated my books to the library in my village. It was mostly engineering and study books.

Yea places to donate are aplenty, but I could really use the cash. Plus I had fiction books in mind, YA to fantasy to thrillers etc. I've donated almost all my school books anyway

Hey any idea of a decent bookstore online which can deliver hardcover within a week? Wish to gift the hardcover of a specific book but Amazon and Flipkart show way too long of delivery times - nothing delivers before July 5, need it by June 29.
Offline locations in and around Navi Mumbai/Mumbai also appreciated, thanks.

Make a thread on TE. A few years back I sold nearly 150+ books to another member here.
Last I read Wayward & Wise was about to close. Guess they managed to survived, haven't been there recently.
