Library Update - Print Book Signage

Over previous months we have undertaken various stock moves within our collection of print library books. As such the existing signage provided to help locate books is now out of date. While we update this, to minimise confusion we will be removing all existing shelfmark signage for a short period, before installing new signage. If in this period, you have any difficulties locating books, our helpdesk is available to support you.

Important Update

Following their initial recovery from their cyber attack, the British Library are now running an interim inter-library loan service. For more information on this and how to send a request, see our dedicated Inter-Library Loan help pages.
