Joining You will need to register and receive an Institute membership card. You should do this during general registration in the first week of term. Please remember to bring your membership card with you whenever you visit the library, as you will need it to borrow or renew items. Please also let the library know if you change your address or lose your membership card. Borrowing Students may borrow up to 12 items, research students up to 20 items, and staff up to 30 items.
Loan periods vary.
If an item is on loan to someone else, you will be able to reserve it. If you receive a recall on an item please help us by returning it as soon as possible. Recalls are only sent if an item is urgently required by another library user. Please note that fines are charged on overdue items at a rate displayed in the library. You will be reminded by e-mail if items are overdue, but it is your responsibility to check the return date stamped in the item.
