Sounds great, OneOfOne.
My daughter (as is my sister) is a librarian. Every now and then they have a clean out and dump books which are either too tatty to put on the shelves or have no interest shown in them. Should she come across something in which she thinks I or my wife might be interested she rescues them and passes them on. I've gained a Norton Sky Atlas (OK, epoch 1950, but it's fine for my purposes) and Fred Hoyle's Astronomy and Cosmology - A Modern Course. The latter is in very good condition but is heavy going at times.
The moral seems to be "befriend a librarian".
