Re:How libraries decide which books to keep by Houshalter on Saturday May 17, 2014 @04:07AM (#7759554)
There is certainly value in keeping some copies around for future historians. However not every local library needs to or can afford to, and they aren't of much value to the people who use the library.

That's perfectly correct, and a sensible response. The comment I replied to, however, was simply saying that those books need to die, which is much less sensible.
