In text messages seen by ST, some Yale-NUS alumni said they had tried to organise a donation drive or giveaway for the books, but were told that it was not possible for reasons involving the security tags attached to these books.

One Yale-NUS alumna, who wanted to be known only as Ms Yin, said: “I feel that NUS, as a global leading institution, should be able to recognise the scarcity and preciousness of intellectual resources like books.

“While there may have been issues of labour and manpower to, say, remove RFID chips on the book, I believe that we had a lot of students who were willing to volunteer their time to allow for some salvaging of books,” the 26-year-old added.
