At the University of Rhode Island, we recycled our old JSTOR (and other) volumes. Fortunately, we did not have to remove the covers. We did this as a small pilot project (Q&#39;s and R&#39;s only) over the summer. It was a bigger undertaking than we expected. We offered discarded volumes to our consortium members as per policy, but nowhere else.<br>
