Returns Room

Located on the Ground Floor of The Sir Duncan Rice Library near the entrance the Returns Room contains self-return machines.

There are two internal drop points (like letter boxes) that allow you to return books one by one through a slot. Books are automatically discharged from your borrower record and routed by conveyer belts to sorting bins allocated to each floor or collection. Books are then collected by library staff and taken to the relevant floors for fast reshelving.

On the outside wall of the Returns Room is an external book drop slot where you can make returns even when the library building is closed. This allows return of books, when the Library building itself is open or closed, 24 hours and 7 days per week.
