Could be a sneaky way to get nice books for cheap! In case you think that all books at Goodwill are junk, I got a barely used hardcover of Bourne Identity (Robert Ludlum) for a couple of bucks. I also got a bunch of nice Tom Clancy's as well.
That sounds fun and it would work! PBS offers a cell phone app, so you can check ISBNs while you are shopping at a used book store and see if anybody has that book on their PBS Wish List. That would help you find tradeable books. PBS makes no distinction between books - paperback, hardcover, mass market, collectible, textbooks. They are all 1 credit (maybe 2 credits for audio books).
