Just put it into a box and mail it to your current library, they will either keep it in their collection or send it along to the new regional Braille holding libraries.

Can they just send me a self address free matter mailing which is empty that I could put it back in and send to them? A friend told me, if you've had that book now for over a year, which I bet I have, not knowing, they probably by now have just filed it as lost, and have re-embossed it, no biggy, it happens, just keep it. Returning it now wouldn't be practical, but somehow, that doesn't sound honest, and I wanna do the right thing.
