Dear All
Due to campus consolidation and moving into a new library building we
have withdrawn quite a lot of old stock. We have recently started to use
BetterworldBooks to sell some of this, but following their guidelines of
what they will accept for sale still leaves us with the problem of
damaged or defaced items that can't be resold. Please can you let me
know what your libraries do with this type of withdrawn stock? Do you
recycle or bin? If recycle - how? Does anyone know of a company that
will collect for recycling? What about magnetic strips in books etc?
Any guidance would be welcome and thank you for your time.
