Borrowing books from home
We regret we are not able, at present, to provide Distance Learning students with books by post.
You can check the Library Search online and place reservations for books that are on loan. You will, however, have to collect reserved books from the Library and Learning Centre. Or alternatively search the Library Catalogue for e-Books, which are accessible at home.
Please note, we retrieve reserved books once every 24 hours - you should therefore look on the Catalogue under Borrower Services to check that a book is awaiting collection before you plan a visit to collect it.
