Your library reservations – some disruptions

We have a new Library system going live on Monday 17 August, which will offer some fantastic improvements around how you search for Library print and electronic materials. There’ll also be some changes to the way you do things on your Library account, all of which we’ll be updating on as they go live.

For those of you using the Library regularly at the moment, though, we just want you to be aware of some possible disruption to reservations you’ve placed on books in the Library.

We’ll be able to process your reservations up to Friday 14 August, but anything you have reserved that hasn’t been returned by that time won’t be transferred to our new system. This means you’ll need to go to our new system (which you’ll find in the same location on the Library website) any time after Tuesday 18 August and re-reserve them.

We apologise for any disruption caused, which unfortunately is unavoidable as we move from one system to another. If you have any concerns about reservations you’ve placed and what you need to do with them, please don’t hesitate to speak to a member of staff in the Library for help, or email library-enquiries@surrey.ac.uk.
