Picking up and returning books

Direct pick-up

When the book is listed in LUBcat as being at "IIIEE" under the section "Available on shelf", you can pick it up yourself. 

The IIIEE library is closed for the public right now but you can reguest books Lubcat and pick them up at a library of your choice.

Most books are classified by author surname. Exceptions are books with an editor or books with more than three authors, which are placed on the shelf according to title.

Picking up a book at another library within Lund University

In most cases, you can have a book sent by our transport service to the library of your choice within Lund University. You request the book in LUBcat. Some restrictions apply.

Requesting material from the stacks

If the book you are looking for is in the stacks, this will be indicated in LUBcat and you need to request it via the LUBcat request button which features in each post.

When the book is available for pick-up a notification is sent to the email address in your library account.

Returning books

You can return books during library opening hours and in the book drop outside the library but only as long as the IIIEE Insitute is opened. The book drop closest to IIIEE is on the western side of the University Library. Books, returned in book drops, are checked in the following working day. Course books that are overdue then will generate an overdue fee.

Books which were borrowed from a library within Lund University can be returned at any of the University’s libraries. View the other libraries within the Lund University library network and their respective opening hours here.

If you can't make it to any of our libraries, there is always the possibility to return your loans by mailing them to us.
