The Library will always gratefully consider donations of your unwanted books that we may be able to add to our stock. Criteria for accepting donations would be the currency of the edition, or if they are of historical interest to us. However, we do need to be very selective in terms of what we can accept due to storage problems, so in some cases we may need to decline your offer.

Please email library help with a list of your donations and the editions.

There are alternative options to donate your books, including local schools, and charities who send books to schools and universities in developing countries, such as Book Aid International.  There is also the Amnesty International Bookshop on Westgate Road.  The Library has connections with local schools, to which we may be able to refer.
