You can also post items (all return postage costs are your responsibility) in recorded post to the Library postal address.
If
you cannot get to the Library during opening hours, there is a return

elevator). Your books will be discharge at the beginning of the next
working day.
If you are not on-site, you have to return the documents to the Library by post, using recorded delivery.

HOLDS
Standard loan books can be placed on hold by ISU Library members, so that you get to borrow it next.
Hold requests are self-service and cannot be placed over the telephone. To place a hold, log into My Library and place the hold through Library Search.

> the item has been requested by someone else
> you have an overdue item which will interfere with renewals
> your library privileges have been suspended for any reason
SSP students and external borrowers can not renew loans.
Inter-library loans will not be renewed.
