New term, new simpler library borrowing

Leave a reply

20140909_112222You told us that our library borrowing rules could be made simpler – so that is exactly what we have done!

New, rules are now in place to make it easier and simpler to understand and manage your library borrowing.

We also took the opportunity to change library fines, following our consultation with staff and students last academic year.

You can now see at a glance how many items you can borrow, how long you can keep them and also check on things like renewals, recalls and fines, all in one ‘at a glance’ table.
