Disposing of a father's old books and placing them in a public library

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, there is a father who passed away eighty years ago. He had handwritten books, some of which were printed, and time has taken its toll on them; some have torn apart and some have been lost. I have some of them, and his uncle has taken some from them. He verified them for something after his brother's death; he is not one of his children, and nothing remains of him after his death, no dispute or claim, and no will. And he wrote on the stone, so whoever descends from him after him or hears of it, it is similar to what they change. And indeed, it came to me from them that they have placed them in a library for da'wah (calling to Islam) and people in various cities. As for what I have, I do not benefit from it. So may Allah reward you with good for giving water so that they benefit from it, or a quarter, or a quarter in public schemes.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. Public libraries that are for reading, where students of knowledge read and benefit from them, there is no harm in placing endowment books in them. You place them in a public library, just as your uncles placed the books they had from them in the work library; you should place them there too. Yes.
