welcome Quentin, I am new as well. I've notheard of the WBTS asking for their books back either. In my mind, we had to pay for the literature, however long ago, so they have no right to ask for them back. Perhaps they are going to recycle them? I can understand maybe they want the really old books, they're quite interesting, after all. My husband has suggested that we box all ours up and deposit them on the doorstep at the KH, or one of the elder's homes. It's either that, or he wants to have a book-burning BBQ sometime soon.
