Available for purchase on the day will be many 100’s of new / secondhand donated books and heaps of aviation magazines – a wide range of aviation history books, autobiographies, biographies, histories of individual aircraft types / aircraft companies, old journals, books on the history of RAF, technical textbooks, mathematical works etc. – a sheer abundance of aviation titles.
An opportunity to buy those Christmas presents for yourself you really do want or presents for other aviation enthusiasts.
Most of the books will be sold between £1.00 and £5.00 and the magazines will be 25p each or 5 for a £1.00; the money raised from the sale of these donated books will be used towards the conservation of historic aviation material in the Library’s archives.
We have had a number of book collections donated to the Library in recent months and we literally have boxes and boxes of donated books / magazines to sell on the day.” – Brian Riddle, Chief Librarian, National Aerospace Library
