Annual Review 2018

Stephen Gladstone Hall Project 2019-2021 

De-accessioning list:

After a very successful six months in 2019 where we offered volumes from classmarks B, F, and U for free re-homing to other collections and members of the public, we currently have the following titles available for rehoming. If you are interested, please send an email to [email protected], detailing which titles you would like, and why. Please note that as a registered charity we prioritise any individual or organisation who will keep the titles publicly accessible:

Stephen Gladstone Hall titles for re-homing 2022

Please note that the last date requests can be made is the 10th June 2022

We are also reviewing our holdings of the The Journal of Medical Ethics and the The International Journal for the History of Engineering and Technology (please note that we are only considering disposing of duplicate copies). If you are interested in any copies that we hold, please email the address given above.
