Reserving library materials step by step

Library materials can be reserved by users who have permissions for borrowing and have valid library accounts for the WUL's Local Lending Department..

A library account for using library's materials only locally on site cannot be used to make reservations.

If in tab Location Items, next to a specific item there is information: On loan together with the date, it means that the item is borrowed until the indicated date. In this case, it can be reserve it using the Order button.

After performing such an operation, information about the reserved item appears in the user's account in the My Requests tab: Requests. In the reservation queue. Position in the queue: 1. The last information indicates position in the waiting queue for the item.

Reserving is not synonymous with an ordering! By reserving the already lent item, user is signing in the list of people waiting for the return of that indicated item.

The reservation may be cancelled by an employee of the Local Lending Department at the user's request.

Information about the fact that the reserved item can be lent is being sent to the user's e-mail given during subscription to the Library.

The user can collect the reserved item during the 4 days. After this time the unclaimed item is offered to the next person waiting in the reservation queue.
