Where to donate technical books

[Na Fan]

I've got a load of books that I no longer need. They're very high quality Oracle, Unix, Linux books. Cost me a fortune and they still hold quite a lot of valuable information - they're not like totally outdated and worthless.

 

We're in Pattaya, but would be willing to bring or send them elsewhere.

 

Question is where? We've tried the local library and they're like completely disinterested because the books are of course in English.

Maybe Canterbury Tales will take them, they're a book shop that's just moved to Soi Bongkot

advertise them on Amazon, E-bay, and Craigs List.

IT related groups in Facebook, search for something like "Linux Thailand"

Technical publications need to be used in a place of Technical Learning.

A really good home for these Books may be the Disabled Learning Center on Soi Umai

Its the Soi next to Big C, Central Pattaya ( Klang )Road going towards Nua ( Right at lights for Big C if coming from Suk ) and the Center is about 1 KM along on the Right

I know they have classes in Computer Repair, but not sure about coding.

Hope you find a good home for these Books.

I guess you are aware that anyone can get most of these books  as epub for free. That's what I  am  doing  anyhow.
