Order and collect service and access to public computers
Update: 12 November - Choose your own books from the library catalogue.
It's now possible to choose your own books from the library catalogue and have them sent to the branch where you'd like to pick them up. Simply search the catalogue, choose a book(s) and submit a request via your library account. If you'd prefer to carry on using the Order and Collect service, where library staff choose books for you, that option is still available below.
