Since the Oak Lodge Library has not had any reference staff for a few of 
years, its reference collection has been under-used and is gathering 
dust.  To make better use of the space we have deleted a large number of 
reference sources.  Many of your libraries may already have some of 
these since most of them are classic reference titles, but if these are 
newer editions or a set you don't already own, they may be right at home 
in your library.  Some of these sources are no longer in print, so 
consider this a rare opportunity!

These items are available to any library on the Orbis courier

I only have a brief title list, so if you need more information, just 
let me know.
