Books
Books can be recycled in the normal paper recycling bins.
Could your books be reused?
If you think the book is reusuable, we do provide a book redistribution and recycling service where your old books are resold on the open market by a private firm. Any books that are not sold are recycled.
To have books collected for redistribution and recycling please complete a Porter Request form.
We have contacted charities to see if they are interested in taking these items but have had a poor response. If you know a charity that is interested in taking large quantities of current and out of date specialist literature please email recycle@ncl.ac.uk
