Books as prizes for the library’s best readers 2026

Summary

The Municipality of Isla Cristina is procuring books for adults and for children and young people to be awarded to the municipal library’s best readers during the 2026 Library Day celebrations. The books will not be added to the library’s general collection. The technical specifications estimate 13 adult books (average unit price €30, total €400) and 11 children’s and young adult books (average unit price €17, total €200). The maximum budget is €600 including VAT; the technical specifications calculate this using 4% VAT, amounting to €23.08. The library will provide the requested titles, authors, ISBNs and quantities. Books must be in perfect condition; hardback editions are preferred, and paperback editions are allowed only when the hardback edition is out of stock and the library has been notified. The complete order must be delivered in one shipment to Isla Cristina Municipal Library, C/ Doctor Gómez Bastero 5, by 30 October 2026. Offers are assessed on price (up to 80 points), delivery time (up to 10 points) and book presentation (up to 10 points). Faster delivery scores more: delivery within 2 calendar days earns 10 points, 3–4 days 7 points, 5–7 days 4 points, and 8–10 days 0 points. Individual protective recyclable gift wrapping for every copy earns 5 points, and a bookmark in each book featuring the municipality’s design earns 5 points. Bidders must submit an electronic offer including the price, VAT shown separately and a list of unit prices, together with a responsible declaration and the required evidence of tax and Social Security compliance. Separate evidence of financial or technical capacity is not required. The tender documents also impose contract performance conditions concerning packaging, environmental sustainability, employment and pay requirements, and delivery arrangements.
