How to request closed access materials for consultation, on Thursday evenings
The Reading Room will be open on Thursday evenings for consultation only, so if you wish to request materials please do so in advance, and at the very latest, by 4.00pm the same day.
All archive, manuscript and most special printed collections are closed access and so should be requested in advance.
*Please note that some materials may not be available due to their condition or size, or may already have been requested, so to avoid disappointment – especially if you are visiting from a distance – we would advise that you contact us in advance of your visit. Please also allow adequate retrieval time for multi-volume sets of materials and larger single items such as plans.
Please search the catalogues here to identify the material(s) you would like to consult, then fill in a request card in person in the Reading Room, or email speclib@abdn.ac.uk, to request the individual item(s).
Access to browseable Reading Room Materials Local Collection, S Collection and Reading Room periodicals are all on open access shelves in the Reading Room and so will be accessible and available for consultation on Thursday evenings.
