Borrowing
Your student or staff ID card is also your library card. You can't borrow books without it. You can usually borrow items within 24 to 48 hours after you matriculate (collect your card). There are self-service machines on every level of the Sir Alex Ferguson Library. Use these to borrow and return books, just follow the on-screen instructions. Users can borrow books for two week periods. Items will automatically renew for a period of 14 weeks unless they are requested by another user. Students, staff and researchers can borrow a total of 20 items.
More information is available on finding items and our library regulations. If you are not a student or a member of staff, you can still join the library and use our services. All the information you need is on our membership page.
For more information, look at our FAQs page or ask at The Library Desk on level 0.
