If you are a Distance Learner at Birmingham City University, and live in the UK, you are eligible for loanable items in our libraries to be posted to you.
The term "Distance Learner" applies to someone who is enrolled on a course where Birmingham City University has designated the mode of study as "distance learning", rather than somebody who lives a long way from University.
- You may request up to four items to be posted at a time (maximum loan limit 20)
- Items may be available on shelf or on loan to another borrower
- You will be added to a reservation queue for the item if no copy is currently available
- Two week loans will be issued initially for four weeks, but will revert to two weeks on renewal
- Please be aware that you will have to pay the cost of return postage
- We regret that we cannot post books outside of the UK
