How do I borrow by post online?
Our system has two functions: the cart and placing a hold. The cart function is mainly designed for those who will be physically navigating the library collections: to make a list in printer-friendly format to bring in to find items, almost like a shopping list before going to the shop. Placing an item in a cart won’t stop anyone else borrowing it or reserve it for you. You can place items in a cart that can’t be loaned out: reference books, articles, records.
Placing a hold on an item, on the other hand, reserves the item for you, stops anyone else borrowing it in the meantime, and the system only allows you to place holds on items that are eligible for lending. You can place holds on titles that are checked out to other borrowers: this stops them renewing the title and flags up the hold placed by you when the item is checked back in. The most efficient way we’ve found for postal loans is to place holds on items that you want. This ensures they can’t be checked out before they’re pulled from the shelves and that we know you would like them sent out to you. Alternatively, you can email reception@spl.org.uk with a simple list of the items you would like, and we will retrieve and send them for you when they are available.

Ciamar a gheibh mi leabhar tron phost air-loidhne?
Tha dà rud as urrainn dhan t-siostam againn a dhèanamh: cuir dhan chairt, agus cuir a thaobh e. Tha a’ chairt ann airson, anns an àbhaist, daoine a bhios a’ dol tro na cruinneachaidhean gu fiosaigeach: thèid a cleachdadh airson liosta a chruthachadh ann am foirm as urrainn clò-bhualadh airson toirt a-steach dhan Leabharlann gus rudan a lorg, mar gum biodh sibh a’ cruthachadh liosta airson na bùtha. Ma chuireas sibh rudeigin anns a’ chairt, cha chuir sin bacadh air duine sam bith eile a tha airson an rud fhaighinn air iasad, agus cha chuir e a thaobh e dhuibh a bharrachd. ’S urrainnear rudan a chur anns a’ chairt nach urrainnear fhaighinn air iasad: leabhraichean iomraidh, artaigilean, clàran.
Air an làimh eile, nuair a chuireas sibh rud a thaobh, thèid a ghleidheadh air ur son: cha tèid aig duine eile an rud fhaighinn air iasad, agus cha leig an siostam leat ach rudan as urrainnear fhaighinn air iasad a chur a thaobh. ’S urrainnear tiotalan a chur a thaobh a tha an-dràsta air iasad aig cuideigin eile: bidh seo a’ ciallachadh nach tèid aca ath-nuadhachadh a dhèanamh air an iasad aca, agus thèid a thoirt mun airidh nan Leabharlannaichean gu bheil còir aca an leabhar a ghleidheadh dhuibh. Tha seo gu h-àraidh feumail airson rudan fhaighinn air iasad tron phost: tha e a’ ciallachadh nach gabh duine eile an leabhar a tha thu a’ sireadh bho na sgeilpichean, agus gum bi fios againn gu bheil sibh airson is gun cuir sinn thugaibh e cho luath ’s a thilleas e. ’S urrainnear post-d a chur gu reception@spl.org.uk le liosta de na stuthan a tha sibh ag iarraidh, agus cuiridh sinn thugaibh iad nuair a tha iad ri fhaotainn.
