Electronic books
The FRA Library
Books may be borrowed from the FRA Library by any FRA member, providing the borrower covers the cost and material needed for delivery of the book from the FRA, and back to the FRA. Requests for books should be accompanied by stamped and addressed packaging which is suitable for the size, weight and protection of the book. Dimensions and weights of the library books are given in the table below. – dimensions are in centimetres, and weights are in grams.
Note that the standard period for borrowing a book is 28 days, and it is expected that a book will be returned by the expiration of this period. Books may be renewed by email, post or telephone (see details for the FRA Secretary on the Committee page) providing the book is not subject to a request by another member.
The exception to this is the FRA copy of Stud Marks On The Summits by Bill Smith which was considered too valuable to lend in this way. Fortunately, Bill has granted us permission to hold an electronic copy of the work on the website, which is available here.
