Important information
- You can reserve 10 items at once, when these 10 items are issued you can request a further 10 to get your full allowance of 20 items.
- After placing a reservation, it takes about 7 working days to receive an item; check your Library account to see when books were issued for posting.
- Books are dispatched using Royal Mail Signed For™ 2nd Class delivery for UK addresses and Royal Mail International Tracked and Signed for mainland Europe; you will need to sign for your item upon delivery.
- Items are your responsibility until returned.
- If someone requests a book you have on loan, you will receive a notification to your University email address asking you to return the item within 14 days.
- Distance Learners can also use Request It! to request books and articles not in stock.
- We will post items to the address on your Library record, please advise library@leedsbeckett.ac.uk if you change address.
