the cd's and DVD' s can be digitalized and stored on a computer or jump drive. Frees up a lot of space on the book shelf. There is software to get it done. There are digital players like a mica or a ruku to put them on your tv screen. The books...I've got about 700 tucked away on a hard drive. There are web sites that will let you read a book from your computer screen, or down load for free. The cookbooks...copy the recipes that look inviting to a " blank" book...or note paper in a binder. I don't of anyone who has made each recipe in a cook book. Takes a bit time to get it all done....but worth it.
