Book recalls during the Easter Vacation 2023

We are approaching the assessment and examination period when there is increased demand from students completing their studies. In order to give fair access to books, we will continue to recall loans that have been reserved by other users. You may be asked to return books during the Easter Vacation (3 April – 21 April 2023). Please check your university email regularly.

If your recalled loan becomes overdue, we will block your Library account so that you cannot borrow or renew anything until the recalled item has been returned. If you still do not return the recalled item, you will be invoiced for a replacement. Blocked accounts can only be restored during staffed library hours.

We appreciate that you may not be able to get to the Library in person to return recalled books, in which case, please post them back securely to the address below:
