When your requested book is ready to collect we will send a 'Request Awaiting Collection' email which will inform you how long we will keep the book for you.

Requested books are held for 5 days. Items not collected within this time will either be passed onto the next person in the queue or returned to the library shelves.

For more information on requesting books, please visit the 'Borrow, Reserve and Return' webpage on the Newcastle University Library website.
