Library Essentials for Students – Request Books

You can request that an item be saved for you.
  • If the item is already out on loan a hold will be placed on the item and you will be added to the queue to receive it when it is returned to the library.
  • If the item is not on loan the item will be picked off the shelf for you the next time the request list is processed by staff.

You can request items
  • Via Library Search – you will need to log in, then when you view a book’s locations you will see an option to request the item. Complete the short form and click the request button
  • Asking a member of staff at the counter

You can also request that an item at the Campus Library be sent down to the Health Library for you to pick up here. Please speak to a member of staff at the Library.

You will be sent an email when the item is available for you to collect – so keep an eye on your emails.
