Bits n' Pieces

A couple of small news items:

1) Loans due back Friday 29th, Saturday 30th March and Monday 1st April have a new due date of Tuesday 2nd April, so don't feel you have to make it over the Easter weekend to return your loans, you can wait until Tuesday now.

2) We've added a 4th study room in Aungier St. However you'll have to share this with library staff, who be using it from time-to-time.

3) We've experiencing some temporary difficulty with Westlaw UK access through Athens at the moment.  I'm sure this will be resolved swiftly. At least I hope it will.

A gentle reminder about gentle reminders

It's nice to see that the reminder email service we (re)started in January has been very well received. However, we'd like to remind readers that the reminder email does not represent any official notification of the due date of your loans. This service is like a bonus, a courtesy service ...reminding you of the due date. If you use the self-service stations to borrow books, you get a receipt with the due date, please don't throw this away. If you have a PIN, you can manage your library account online. We're also available by phone, by email and by Ask-a-Librarian, hence if you try to use "I didn't get a reminder email" to avoid liability for a fine, you will get the same reception you'd expect from saying that your dog ate your homework (I didn't have a dog so I had to eat my own homework). I know there's more pressure on our readers at the moment, but it shouldn't be too difficult to manage your library account to avoid liabilities being incurred

Sunday returns

Happy new year! A small number of you may have noticed that your loans have been date stamped for return on a Sunday. Specifically, Sundays 11/01/09, 18/01/09 and 25/01/09. Please disregard these dates and work on the assumption that the books are due back on the Monday (today, 19/01/09 and 26/01/09). Obviously as this is being posted around 09.35pm on 12/01/09, it's only really relevant to those of you with books due back on the 18th or 25th.
