Further comments, requests, background regarding collection dateIf you have any fixed deadlines, target dates, dates to avoid, or any other date related comments, requests or queries, add them here.

IMPORTANT - books cannot be returned after they have been collected *I understand and accept that books cannot be returned once they have been collectedOnce books have been collected, work begins right away to find them a new home. This is a fast and efficient process. It is therefore not practicably possible to return specific books to their original owner if they have been presented for collection in error. Please be careful to only present books that you definitely no longer need or require, especially if they have sentimental value. Simply Textbook cannot accept responsibility for any books that have been presented for collection in error.
