Hello,

I've devised a standard letter which says that after due consideration [ahem!] we do not require their books. It then goes on to say could they arrange collection by a  certain date, and if we do not hear anything by that date the books/ DVDs/ whatever will be disposed of.
It may not prevent current deliveries but I think it might help ward off future ones.

2008 is the National Year of Reading.
I'm just reading "A fine balance" by Rohinton Mistry. It's a many-hundred-page novel set in India, and it's a really enjoyable, involving read.

Yep, all our libraries got a copy, somehow personally addressed to individuals who work in each library.  We also all got a full set of scientologist items - 12 volumes of hardbacks per library.  Would love to stop getting them if anyone knows how?

Subject: Unsolicited deliveries

Has any other library authority received unsolicited copies of a book called
Atlas of Creation by Harun Yahya? Its a very large, heavy, expensively
produced book challenging Darwin's theory. There is no covering letter, and no
invoice. We are now starting to receive a second volume of the same title.
We're not adding the books to stock, but I would like to be able to stop
receiving copies.
