Dear Sir,
Generally there is a policy in the library to dispose-off old newspapers after six months or one year. First of all a “Newspaper Dispose off Committee” has to be formed up for that purpose which constitutes Librarian, One person from Accounts section, one from store and purchase section.
The committee further calls for quotations from local parties interested in purchasing old newspapers. The committee then recommends to sale the old newspapers (except previous I month newspapers) to the highest quoting party. The cash, whatever, received is then deposited in the accounts section (Institute Account or Registrar’s account).
Hope the above answers you query
Regards,

Dear mam,
I don't know in which org. you are working in. But in case it is govt venture, you are sure not authorized to use the money on your own which is earned by selling old newspapers. You have to either deposit it in institute account or take a formal approval of competent authority to utilize that money.
