Borrowing rights are not transferable.
You are the only person registered and entitled to use your card. Your card will entitle you to borrow up to 5 normal loan items for 14 days with one renewal. Staff at the loans desk can provide details of services available to you. The hours of opening are on the website.

In addition to the normal terms and conditions of use to which all borrowers must adhere, there are some special conditions which apply to Community borrowers.

• The borrower's card must be produced each time a library item is borrowed.
• Library items must be returned to the University Library, in the returns box at the service desk or in the after hours return chute, or by mail on or before the due date.
• The borrower has full responsibility for any costs incurred by the Library in the provision of requested services for the borrower.
