How do I make and cancel a reservation for a book?

Answer

If you need a book and all copies are on loan, you can reserve a copy so that when the book is returned by the previous user it will be kept for you instead of returning to the shelves. You are unable to reserve a title that has loanable copy available on the shelf.

You can view the full instruction on requesting an item and other details here - Reservation.

You will receive an email when the item is ready for you to collect. Ensure that you collect on or before the date specified on the email from the shelves on the ground floor of the library.

If you no longer need the item that you have reserved, you can cancel the reservation by signing in your Locate account.
