I have no problem with that. Selling used books as an individual is hard, since people will not pay a lot of money for them (since brand new books are cheap), so at least for me I find its not worth the time to sell them. At least then the public library benefits from the donation.
What's wrong with that? The library gets money and the book goes to someone that wants it. Win-win.
