Hi Rachael and Dawn We had an experience where a library book that was long overdue turned up on Amazon, the student concerned having dropped out and then sold the book, I imagine it was for such reasons that amazon has tightened security. We use a company called betterworld books at http://www.betterworldbooks.com/ for our outdated stock which give us a percentage of the value of items they sell and also donate a small percentage to a charity of our choosing.

[mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Dykes, Rachel Sent: 20 January 2016 09:32 To: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Subject: Selling through Amazon Dear all We are looking into the possibility of using Amazon as an outlet for selling both withdrawn stock (mainly audio CD and cassettes) and a few of our own publications. We'd be interested to find out if other authorities do this and what benefits/pit falls you have come across.
