Unwanted Books

Public libraries ususally don't want the books. They already have sets of encyclopedias and have no more room for others. Donate them to a school, church with a library, Good Will, Salvation Army, second hand book store, second hand store with assorted merchandise, flea market sale, garage sale. Give them to a neighborhood child less fortunate, take them to a charity that distributes to the needy. Don't throw them away. Someone somewhere would be glad to take them off your hands.

I sold mine but had to include the book case with sliding glass doors otherwise nobody wanted them. And, they go CHEAP.

I tried giving away medical books and regular fiction, etc. & no one seems to want them. You MIGHT try selling (or giving them away) to a used book store, or you could try searching online for "used encyclopaedias" and there may be someone who is looking to buy them?  Also, if you can't sell them, you might try donating them to your public library.  Good luck!

Agreeing with citrine 1, never throw a book away! Donate them, or try selling them to a used book dealer. But don't expect to make much money ... used books, no matter how valuable, don't bring big prices. If a dealer is interested in your collection, he'll offer you a price for the whole collection. You'll have them off your hands, along with the pleasure of knowing that someone else will get to read them.
