I have a shopping bay of CDs ready to go as well as boxes of old LPs. Time to get rid of them. Thanks everyone for helping me figure this out.

Your profile says you live in the Big City. Hope that doens't mean an affected part of NYC!!
If not, can you somehow donate something to the people so terribly traumatized by the storm(s)? Or something similiar?
As for books, this may sound silly, but I am sure there are homeless shelters, nursing homes, or even mental hospitals or ICU visiting rooms with people desperate for reading material. I lived in a homeless shelter, and books were really really enjoyed by the residents there. Hope you are well.
