Our Club Library is going fast.........

Posted by ricey on February 12, 2007 11:17 PM | 

For many years out of our near 30 year history as a Metal Detecting Club we have had a club library. Over the years we have amassed a number of books. However as of late it has become more and more difficult getting these books out of a club night - and trying to get lent copies back (a similar issue had by many libraries country wide). It was decided to dismantle the library and sell them on ebay. It is actually very surprising when you see the value of some of these books going back to the 1800's. One book alone I saw advertised in a book dealers for close on £100. I guess the club treasurer will be happy to see our club coffers swell again. At the same time it is sad to see them go.
