Second Hand Academic Book Sale Drop-Off

If you've got any unwanted old textbooks lying around then listen up! On Monday 3 October we'll be holding a second hand academic book sale where you can earn money for your unwanted textbooks.

Basically, you'll let us know how much you want the books on sale for and which department they are for. Afterwards, we record all the details and keep hold of your books. On the day of the sale, we put all books out on display for students to browse and buy. If it sells, you keep 100% of the money!

Last year, we put a whopping £2814 back into students' pockets. In the middle of a cost of living crisis, let's see if we can improve on that this year!

Book drop-off

On Thursday 29 and Friday 30, students can drop their books off at Medicine between 12:00-15:00. Just bring your books and your College Card!

What happens if my books sell?

We will send you an email to confirm we’ve sold your books. You'll then need to complete a form so that we can transfer the money to you via BACS.

What if my books don't sell?

We will send you an email to let you know your books didn’t sell, and we'll let you know where and when you can collect them.

If some books sell but others don't, we'll transfer the money via BACS for the ones that sold.
