Suspecting that my children and grandchildren will not want anything more than a few choice pieces from my alpine library, I imagine I will eventually give my library away. After all, do I really want to leave it all behind when I pass away, and give my children the chore of what to do with 60 boxes of books!
So, in coming years books will go to friends for birthday and Christmas presents. While select portions of the collection will go to North Country School, Camp Treetops, the Keene Valley Library, ADK Welcome Center, Union College Library, and the American Alpine Club Library.
