We've made improvements to our Click and Collect service.
Who can use the Service
The Service is available for all UCL students, staff and external users with a borrowing account. When collecting, please bring your UCL ID/library membership card听with you.
UCL students and staff as well as NHS and London Mathematical Society users听can request ten books at a time, and other users can request three books at a time.
We advise that you check whether there are copies available in the library before placing a request, as on loan items will take longer to fulfil.听Please note the estimated Click and Collect Turnaround Times below:
- Item is available at the pick-up library: within 2 working days*.
- Item is available at a different UCL library: within 2 working days*.
- All copies of the Item are on loan: when you reach the front of the queue you will receive the next copy that is returned. While you wait, we will recall a copy of the book from loan and will suspend all renewals on that听title.
* Monday - Friday, excluding Bank Holidays and UCL Closure Days.
