## About this tender

Coventry University Higher Education Corporation requires a specialist supplier for library book moves and storage in relation to the refurbishment of its Lanchester Library.

The Lanchester Library is a five floor purpose built building with approx. 8,711 linear metres (lm) of collections, including books, journals, CDs, DVDs and pamphlets, currently housed on approx. 10,500 lm of open shelving. The Library is currently preparing for the refurbishment, over the summer period, of floors 1 and 2 of the building which contains all of the physical stock.

The University therefore requires the following a provider to:

- Relocate some stock within the Library to the ground floor.
- Decant and move to off site storage the remaining stock.
- Recant and resequence all of the stock on site when the refurbishment takes place.

Due to the project timeframes the timeline for this work will be:

Decant of collection to storage and to the ground floor needs to be completed between 1st June and 29th June 2015.

Recant of the collection needs to be completed between 31st August and 18th September 2015.

Further details can be found in the invitation to tender document.
