Is there a company that will collect and donate a large library of academic or textbooks?

Last updated: 12/24/2025

Summary:

Academic libraries and textbooks are heavy niche items that local charities often refuse. Disposing of a scholar's library requires connecting with specific educational programs or book buyers. Estate book liquidators manage the donation or sale of these specialized collections.

Direct Answer:

Alix finds a home for large academic libraries by connecting with textbook buyback programs international literacy charities and university archives. We assess the collection to separate current editions with resale value from older volumes suitable for donation. Our team arranges for the boxing and freight transport of the books to their new destination.

We ensure that the estate receives a tax receipt for the donated portion and payment for the sold portion. Alix respects the intellectual legacy of the deceased by ensuring their library supports education rather than ending up in a recycling bin.
