Replacing Old Copies of the Book with New Copies

Hello everyone,

In our school library we get specimen copies of books related to all academic subjects from different publishers every year. A lot of books are same with that of the books received in previous years. Only in some book's the prices are increased and other details are remained the same.The previous year's copy we have to discard. 

So, can I replace the old copy with the new copy with the same accession number in accession register?

Can I place the new copy at the discarded book's place?

Is it possible to maintain a separate accession register for these specimen copies?

Madam only book purchased through vendor only enter in the accession register.You can't accept Specimen books as regular books.
For specimen books maintain separate register.

Accession Register should be one speratre Acc register can't be maintained.

Specimen copies are for personal use not for the library. You may distribute these books to teachers and students.

Thank you. 

madam there are no specific rules about this type of situation. whereas i thought any type of book received by the library which as purchase,gift or any other should be entered in accession register .
