The message
from "Mary Fisher" contains these words:

We recently had to get rid of a couple of thousands of books - hard backs,
paper backs, all sorts. We cleared the shelves a few years ago, the family
had first pick of them. Then friends. Then we stored them, trying all sorts
of outlets including an overseas charity which pleaded in its advertising
that it wanted *any* book for schools which had none.

And yet a friend of mine was bouncing with joy when she collected 300+
"Golden age" SF books from a FreeCycler.
