Why? You’re making it more difficult for those who want to buy HP books without giving JKR more money. You’re not helping anyone, you’re doing the exact opposite.

Also, it’s highly unlikely those books are getting recycled unless you actually prepared them for recycling. The covers and binding aren’t recyclable and less than 5% of municipal recycling collection in the whole world is sent somewhere that will separate the recyclable material from non recyclable in mixed products. If your recycling doesn’t go straight to the landfill, as over 40% of American recycling does, then those books will get diverted to the trash at the recycling center.

Good news for libraries, where people could borrow the book if they're desperate enough to read it?

Sometimes people like to have their own copies to reread whenever they want. Libraries also keep track of which books are popular and the more in demand a book is, the more new copies they will buy.

The HP books are among the all-time bestsellers in the English language. Nobody's ever going to be in a situation of "I'm desperate to read HP, but there are no copies for sale, I'll have to resort to the library." I'd be surprised if any of them are even out-of-print! And if they are, there are still millions of secondhand copies to be had.

Even in a world where OP was decreasing the supply enough for anyone to notice...and where everybody who wanted to read them checked them out from the library...the library copies will wear out eventually, and the libraries will order new copies. With all the royalties to JKR that that implies.

I think full paperbacks are recyclable? I know hardcovers aren't (and so I was negligent in not pulling the cover off that Rush Limbaugh book I found in a box of books my family had to donate/sell).
