How many people is it serving? Are the books relevant or out of date? Has the information been digitized?
I get that the gut reaction is this is bad – libraries and NASA are cool things. But I have thrown away hundreds of text books myself because they were no longer relevant or used.

I thought the government was trying to eliminate waste? They can’t find other libraries or colleges that will take the material?

If their going to throw it away anyway.Why not make it available to the public to see if it is wanted instead of making it landfill. Oh, wait.That would mean the books would be saved.. And people could actually read them, of course, we can’t have that, as we have to destroy and deny history and science

Nazis burned books less than 100 years ago. Education and knowledge are both power.

I understand that this library might not be part of a modern mandate for NASA, but you should at least donate the books to a university; there are several in the area.

Maybe clear out one of these giant, useless data bullshit centers and put the books in there
