Second Hand Bookshop

Could we have a space where students can buy and sell second hand course textbooks and reading materials? If not a physical space, then an online forum to trade books. The cost of living is really high at the moment and often our textbooks and reading materials are expensive. This is in place at other universities and are really valued by students.

Having this would be super useful at all levels of study.

This Idea has reached the 16 postive votes required for it to be sent to the officers for a decision.

Has there been any update on this idea since May?

The Vice President of Academic Experience and the Vice President of Student Voice collaborated with library staff to implement second hand bookshop on the ground floor of the Curzon Building, enabling students to access and borrow books free of charge.
