The external borrower ticket is valid for one year. If members cannot get to the Library but know which book or journal they want to borrow, this can be requested via the SGT or Mary Parker, the Society Librarian at St George's. The book, if available, will be posted to them. Books are on loan for three weeks only, including postage time. A list of the most popular100 books on various glass topics is being prepared and will be available for searching directly from this site.
Some books are only available for short loan, i.e. overnight or one week only.
It is not feasible to post these to borrowers. The objects of the Society of Glass Technology are to encourage and advance the study of the history, art, science, design, manufacture, after treatment, distribution and end use of glass of any and every kind. These aims are furthered by meetings , publications , the maintenance of a library and the promotion of association with other interested persons and organisations. The Society of Glass Technology has been chosen as the hosts for the International Congress on Glass which will be held in Edinburgh on 1-7 July 2001.
