@moth_ball @lain @mushroom_soup @Nudhul @sun It doesn't though, old books have weak spines so it's already trivial to scan them. The destruction is a concious choice for other reasons. I could see there being a tax write off purpose, but I doubt its the only one. Perhaps the destruction itself is seen as desirable to them.

@Captain_Wet_Beard @lain @mushroom_soup @Nudhul @moth_ball you cut the spine off and feed it to a document feeder if you're doing more than one book. and the thread already established they are legally obligated to destroy the book, that wasn't just their choice
