Dumpster full of old TDSB textbooks ignites book-lover’s complaint | Toronto Star

Nobody once complained about when they threw away those Anne of Green Gables last year.

I assume books do wear out. It is good that they are actually looked at to get to a point they do wear out. Only question I have is why in the dumpster and not the recycling bin?

ETA: saw the picture it was a recycling dumpster. Question withdrawn.
