FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I:  

Find books, films etc?

Our catalogue is available online here. You can search by title, by author [or editor or director etc.] or by words in the subject headings. Click on the title to get to the full record for your item, where you will find the shelfmark. This tells you where to look on the library shelves to find your item. When you are logged in, the full record will also tell you if the item is available, or checked out to someone else, and give you the opportunity to reserve the item. If you are having difficulties using the catalgue, see this page for help, or contact the Librarian.

Check books out?

You can check books out using the self check system, by the LUP Library entrance. You will need your ID card to use the self check. Just follow the instructions posted by the computer. All library materials are loaned for one week.

Check out dvds, videos and cds?

You can only check out dvds, cds and videos during Ms Tyrell's desk duty hours. For Spring 2008 Ms Tyrell's desk duty hours are Monday through Friday 10.30 – 1.00 and Monday through Thursday 5.00 – 6.00.

Renew library materials?
