Items

|---|---|
| Hendon Library: School Libraries and Resources Service (SLRS) refit 2026/27 The Hendon Library houses the public library at the front of the building, and the Local Studies and Archives and the Schools Library and Resource Service (SLRS) in a staff only area at the back of the building. The SLRS provides a large-scale resource lending service to education establishments in Barnet and beyond. Resources are transported in and out in a range of crates and different sized boxes. Some larger items are delivered as they are. The volume of business exceeds a total of 9000 crates/ boxes/items per year. The service is housed at the back of the library building and is not open to or used by the public. Dispatch of the crates and boxes is from doors at the back of the library. Storage is a key element in how efficiently the service works. It also impacts the public library service staff workspace and local studies and archives workspace who share the space. The SLRS service moved into Hendon in 2017 with a mismatched collection of old shelving left over from other library moves at the time. The shelving is too high, blocks light and its layout has been dictated by what was available rather than optimised to fit the space. SLRS collections are spread across the shared space in an ad hoc nature and have by necessity taken over some archives storage and the shared office, making it unusable as an office.

The steps for a Find a Tender notice, from its official pages:
What to do now
Within the week: download the notice and its documents now, and complete what you are missing.
If taking part directly is unclear, go in with a partner or distributor in that country.
On Find a Tender, select “Search”, set the notice type to “Tender notice” (UK4: an opportunity to tender for) and use “save search” for email alerts.
Source: gov.uk(opens in a new tab)You only need to register when you want to bid; Find a Tender is free, and you should not pay to view public sector opportunities.
Source: gov.uk(opens in a new tab)Create a GOV.UK One Login and register your organisation as a “Supplier”: a non-UK address is accepted; with no Companies House number you get an identifier.
Source: gov.uk(opens in a new tab)Have ready: postal address, website, email, the last two years of accounts, connected people or businesses, and any convictions.
Source: gov.uk(opens in a new tab)Share your organisation's unique identifier with the contracting authority before you are awarded a contract.

When taking part directly is not certain, applying with a partner in the buyer's country helps.
UK buyers should generally accept overseas tenders, but the Procurement Act 2023 lets them disregard tenders from suppliers whose country has no relevant procurement agreement with the UK.
The steps were read from the official pages on 6 November 2026; the notice and its documents always set the rules that apply.
