Default The Future of Baseball 'Hard-Copy' Libraries:

Leon- I hope it's okay to post this here:

I have seen this day coming, but it doesn't come with any assurances. For years, I have collected around 200 Hard-Cover books about Baseball and Yearly Issues of TSN Baseball Guide (1962-2006), the USA-Today Baseball Weekly Almanacs (1992-2000) followed by Baseball America Almanacs (1993-2019) and Baseball America Prospects Handbooks (2006,2008,2014-2019).

This week, I was told that the 2019 Atlanta Braves Media Guide will not be produced in hard-copy form. This ends my quest to have every Braves Media Guide since they moved to Atlanta (53 not including WS, AS and Aaron Specials).

With all the changes, I'm wondering how to at least 'cull down' my collections. I have donated many to my local library, but I'm short on ideas.


Anyone have any good ideas?

Is anyone looking for a book that I may have?

I also have a bunch of 'real pretty' auction catalogs.
