Donations policy

The Library Service is grateful to anyone who wishes to donate material, however a few restrictions are necessary.

• We reserve the right to accept, reject, sell or otherwise dispose of donated materials.
• We apply the same objective selection criteria to donated items as we do to those we buy.
• We are unable to inform donors of the usage patterns of items added to stock.

The following materials are not accepted unless we judge they are of significant historical value:

• Items printed on poor quality paper, affected by sun, damp, staining or mildew will not be accepted.
• Technical and scientific books, textbooks and encyclopaedias more than five years old.
• Magazines and Reader's Digest Condensed Books.

If you would like to donate materials to the library, please read the full library donation policy and complete the donation acceptance form. Both are available below:
