Library renewal reminders

Posted by Internal Comms on January 15, 2013 in Staff, Students · 0 Comments

Due to the catalogue server downtime on Monday 14 January 2013, none of the automated reminder emails and letters were sent out. This means that if your book and DVD loans are approaching their renewal date you might not receive any warning before they become overdue.

Please check your Library account (http://is.gd/MyLibraryAccount) and log-in using the library number found on your campus card to check when the items borrowed are due back and renew them if necessary. You can easily renew your loans online or by calling 023 9294 3249.

The Library would like to apologise for this inconvenience which was the result of technical problems beyond our control.
