Change to the Library “Click and Collect” service!

Staff and students should still request books via the form here: https://www.qmu.ac.uk/study-here/learning-facilities/library/click-and-collect/

You will be notified by email when the book is available to collect. Collection will no longer be in person at The Helpdesk, instead when the books are available to collect they will be placed in alphabetical order of requestor surname on a trolley near the Helpdesk. Requestors should then issue their books in the usual way at the self service machines.

This change enables collection at any time during LRC opening hours (8am-9pm, 7 days a week) and reduces handling of the books.

Use this form to request books from the QMU Library.
