Short Loan Books

The McClay Library Short Loan Collection

The Short Loan Collection contains high demand reading list material.

  • Only Queen’s staff, students and Teaching Assistants can borrow items from Short Loan
  • The Short Loan exit in McClay is alarmed so, any items taken out of the Collection should be issued before leaving the area
  • Renewals and requests are not possible because the books are in heavy demand
  • To encourage prompt returns, you will not be able to borrow or request other library material if a short loan book becomes overdue.
