Self service holds


Self-collection of hold request books at Docklands Library


Good news for all students and staff at Docklands who request books from the library! You will no longer need to queue at the library counter to collect your hold request, but will be able to pick it up yourself at any time, day or night.

When you have received notification, either by email or text, that your requested book is available for collection, just go to the Hold Request Collection area (to the right of the Library counter) and follow the instructions displayed.

The books will be filed by ID number order. For students this is the number on your UEL ID card; members of staff will find their ID number in the notification email or can contact a member of library staff if they are unsure what it is.

If you have any questions or queries, please email us at p.j.williams@uel.ac.uk
