When you have chosen the books you need, bring them to the circulation desk.  Students based in Carlow can also bring their books to the self service machine to borrow, return, and renew items.

The Book Collection is divided into several key categories:

General lending:

Students can borrow 6 general lending items for 2 weeks.

General lending items can be reserved, so if the book you need is out on loan, place a hold on it and when it is returned, it will be held for you at the desk. Long loans can also be renewed once, unless another borrower has put a hold on it, in which case, it must be returned.

Short loan:

Students can borrow 2 short loan items for 1 week.

Short loan items are labelled with a red sticker. These books are in high demand and cannot be reserved or renewed.

Other Media:

These items include audio-visual, software and other material.  

Reserve:

These items are kept behind the circulation desk and are lent out for a period of six hours.  Borrowers are not able to take these items out of the library.  These items can include theses, high demand items, headphones and calculators.

NOTE: Students cannot borrow without valid cards and borrowers are responsible for all items issued on their cards.
