You can ask directly for the books you need from the Polo Bolognese catalogue, clicking on “Accesso con credenziali Unibo” and using your University credentials. Books will be ready for pickup for 7 days, including the day you make your request.
From the catalogue, you can also reserve a book which has been previously taken by another user. You can also renew your loan in the 3 days before the book is due to be returned, but only if it was not reserved by another person.
Here you can find all the types of users who can request books and the duration of the loan:
Anyone can renew the loan once, unless the book has been requested by another reader.
If you delay in returning the book, you will be suspended from the loan for a number of days equal to double the number of days of delay.
You can borrow all the materials except:
- journals
- reference materials
- books published before 1950
- ancient, rare and valuable books
- manuscripts
- archival documents
- special collections
- other materials which need special treatments
You can only consult them in the reading room.
