   I have a regular church gig, I would be interested in buying some of them and would pay the postage as well. I have some Maralyn Ham. If you would email me a list we can make arrangements for the purchase of those I am interested in. My address is under my avatar. Thank you.

   The sad fact is that a lot of your collection will probably only appeal to musicians. Churches seem to be headed in a far more secular, simplified, rock-n-roll-ified direction. Few people who provide music for churches can even read music. They just look for a chord sheet and a “strum pattern.”
   If possible, scan the music to digital images to be added to one of the many on-line music libraries. Or offer it to them in print format for them to digitize and keep (conserve) in their physical library as well.
   … of course I have some interest in arrangements; my library is filled with dozens of straight-up hymn books, a few cantatas and four or five volumes of organ voluntaries, preludes and postludes. Even so, I’m overwhelmed with music here and doubt that I would get on to any “new” stuff for years to come.

   After Evas is through taking her right-of-first-refusal choices from your cache ~
   Try listing them as a lot on Ebay, or for sale on Craig’s list.
   If you are in the right financial position (American) they may be evalued higher as a donation, resulting in a tax deduction.
   best regards, petr b.

   I would definitely try to sell them on ebay. if the idea of shipping a bunch of separate ones doesn’t sound appealing, you could sell all of them as a single lot. Probably wouldn’t make as much, but it would be less work and wouldn’t be throwing them in the trash.

   Sometimes I do the pieces in the style of Thomas Dorsey…swinging the eighths. In other cases, I keep the eighth notes straight and play the hymns almost as written.
