[OC] Academic textbooks being discarded from abandoned university buildings. More photos in post.

Aberystwyth University closed one of its campuses a few years ago. The place has been left to rot, but recently they’ve started clearing the place out, and removing all the old scientific textbooks. Most of them look untouched. Wonder how much this lot would have set students back if buying new.
The best profs provide a pdf of questions and don’t expect you to buy a book 😅.
I've never assigned a textbook. It's the wrong way to teach science because no scientists consult textbooks.
Textbooks are about universities in a racket with publishers to sell books in their campus stores. Publishers don't even pay authors on most textbooks.
