How to Click & Collect

Search the Library catalogue or view the New Books list and find the details of the book/s you would like to borrow.

TIP: Please make sure that the titles you are requesting are physical books, not ebooks. You can check this by scrolling to the bottom of the title’s catalogue entry. You can also borrow magazines!

Then email the Library your request with “Click and Collect” in the subject.

TIP: During the Covid restrictions, you can borrow 10 books at a time, instead of the usual 5.

The Library will email you to let you know when or if the books are available. This may take a couple of days, as staff are in the Library only 3 days a week, and books may need to be sterilised according to health and safety protocols.

IMPORTANT: Please wait for the confirmation email from the Library before heading in to collect your books.

When your books are ready, they will be bagged for you to collect on the day specified.
