Hundreds of books were dumped into recycling bins and put to the curb at Pointe-Claire library and Valois library this month. The books were discovered by Eric J (who wishes to remain anonymous) who heroically took immediate action to save the books.
Eric posted the photos on social media and began searching for places to donate them. With the help of fellow residents, he managed to find homes for the books.
âToday the city has filled recycling bins at both the Valois and central libraries with perfectly good books that could be donated or given to less privileged schools or community organizations that could really benefit from these,â Eric wrote in his call to action.
