As we are beginning our final year at university, I am sure that you can appreciate how crucial our access to resources is in order to support us in achieving our best. Although we have been offered the option of reserving books to Luton campus, for those of us that do not live in the area this option is unfortunately of little help. As I am sure you recognise, time is very precious in order for us to complete all of our studies on time. Therefore, being able to collect books from our campus while we are attending our evening lectures is very helpful towards enabling us to spend our study time at home reading and researching literature, rather than making an additional journey to collect it.
Therefore, I am appealing on behalf of my fellow students that you might reconsider the recent change and return to offering us the option to reserve and collect books to our Putteridge Bury campus library.
I thank you for your time and look forward to hearing from you.
Due to circumstances beyond our control we can no longer
staff Putteridge Bury library. This means that Putteridge Bury stock cannot be
reserved and Putteridge Bury is no longer a reservation collection point. When
you reserve other materials from the library catalogue please select the next
most convenient campus to collect your books from ie Butterfield LRC, Luton
LRC, Bedford Library, Aylesbury LRC or UCMK
Access to the print stock is offered for a limited time and
the University would ask you to issue and return your items without staff help.
If you get stuck please ring 01582 743895 for assistance
You are advised to take advantage of Luton LRC or Bedford
Library as they are open 24/7 x 365
We are trying to work on an interim solution so we can
re-introduce the reservations service so in the meanwhile please select the
next most convenient campus to collect your books from ie Butterfield LRC,
Luton LRC, Bedford Library, Aylesbury LRC or UCMK
