A review of the book stock held by the Council’s library service has identified a number of potentially valuable books that are no longer required by the service. The book stock proposed for sale does not include any items that relate to the local area, Essex or other subjects relating to the collection policy of the Council’s Heritage Services.
The Cabinet will be asked, in line with the Council’s disposal of assets policy, to approve the sale of these items at auction, with the income received to be re-invested in the library service.
