LOL. My spouse tends to try to hang on to books forever instead of donating them. I have to push, hard, to help him see that his sentimentalism and acquisition of goods are creating a bigger and bigger need for space.

I try not to buy books, but borrow from our library. Our county has a fabulous library with subscriptions to fantastic research sources, really obscure stuff for a county system vs university.
