What does the library offer?
4. How many books can I take?
This varies between courses, most students can take 10, MA students can take 12.
We will tell you what date your books are due back by when you have them issued. As a rough guide we issue loans for half a term.
You can renew your loans online once, but after this, we must physically see them in the library before we can renew them again.
5. Very Important
Warning:Please do not lend to other students any items you have borrowed from the library, as they will remain your responsibility. You will still be charged for their replacement if others mislay the loans.
6. Very Important (2)
The Lending and Reference Libraries are phone free zones, so please turn them either off or to silent. Please take any phone calls outside.
The Reference Library is a silent working area.
Please dont lock the computers. If you do so, we will switch them off, which will cause any work that you havent saved to be lost!
