Course literature
What is a short loan?
The campus library where the course is administered, holds two copies of all required course literature : one copy is for short loan and can be booked in advance, in the library search system Primo. Remember that a short loan must be returned at the library where it was borrowed.
We recommend that to be sure of the loan, you should book the title(s) in advance for collection at the library. If the book is not lent out you can lend it one hour before the lending period starts. If booked, the item will be held for you one hour after the lending period starts.
The other copy, the 14 day loan, can be reserved in the library search system Primo, if not available on shelf.
