Automatic Renewals

We've made some changes to the library system to make it easier for you to keep your account up to date.

From now on, we will automatically renew your loans as long as no-one has requested them. 

If one of your loans has been requested and we are unable to renew it, we will send you an email to let you know that you need to return it.  

We will also send you a weekly borrowing statement to remind you which books you have out on loan and highlight any that have been requested.

Make sure you check your weekly borrowing statement and library account regularly to avoid fines.

Summer reading

Before you leave for the summer have a look at our check list for a quick reminder about what you need to do and where you can access information:

Get your library accounts up-to-date - Why not pay off your debts (remember final year students will not be allowed to graduate with outstanding debts), return all the books you won’t be needing and cancel any outstanding reservations (give your fellow students a chance of getting what they need too);

- Check all your books have been renewed and that you KNOW YOUR PIN to access your account online - Longer vacation loans begin at 9am on Monday 8 June for standard loans and Thursday 11 June for short loans;
Ring the renewals hotline on 0114 222 7201 if you’re unable to access the Internet;

Practice your information skills with our online tutorials and screencasts;

Follow our Twitter feed to be kept in the loop about what’s going on whilst you’re away;

And remember - we’re always here to help! Contact the library if you’re having any problems accessing information or alternatively get in touch with either Frances or myself for subject specific help.
