Great idea! While I don't think I have any books I can part with, I would donate small quantities of $$$ on-line for an idea ('quests') or whatever is proposed along these lines. I'd probably be able toss my some that way on a semi-regular basis.

Possibly there are enough others to make it viable? If everyone tossed a few bucks into a bucket each month combined with Randal's offer that's quite a few books. (No matter what, there's going to need to be some $$$ needed for shipping)
