I have a 25 volume set of Britanica encyclopedias. I want to get rid of them, but don't know exactly where or to whom I should sell them. Any suggestions?

Hi - It is sad but you may find it difficult to even give this set away. Most libraries will not even take them for a book sale as very few people will even look at a set anymore.
You might try Craig's list or Free Cycle as they would be very expensive (and a lot of trouble) to ship a set like this.
Some people use them for crafts.
Probably nobody wants them but your local recycling company might recycle them.
I have a collection of encyclopedias older but in new condition i need now there value
The only value old encyclopedias have is sentimental value. Even the thrift stores won't take them as a donation.
The previous posters are very correct. Try to find someone who will want them for crafts to give them to. No one will pay you for them.
