Great ideas. Your daughter might also want to post messages on surname & location (city/state) mail lists & message boards whenever the albums become available. You could probably set this up ahead of time with a list of websites she could access easily. I imagine some people would be mighty happy to pay the postage to receive such a "find". Anything but throw them away.
