​

Libraries are now open with a range of safety measures in place for your health and wellbeing. This includes booking in advance for study spaces, Click and Collect for books and wearing a face covering. 

You’ll find all the details at Library Services and COVID-19. 

Throughout the closures, many physical Library services have been on hold, loan limits were extended and all Library fines from 9 March were waived automatically. 

Now that we are open, policies will be returning to normal and we have made some changes to help us share resources while ensuring health and safety. 

• Most Library books will be available for a seven day loan period. Books renew automatically for up to four months, unless they are requested by another user
• From 14 September, we will reinstate library fines for recalled items and overdue laptops
• You will be able to place Click and Collect requests for books on the shelf from the 7th of September, and for any book from 14 September 

Other Library policies will return to normal, including numbers of items/requests available to users (15 items for students and five active requests at any one time).  
 

If you still have Library items you borrowed before COVID-19 closures, please return them as soon as possible. All due dates have been reset to 2 October to enable sharing with other users.  
 
If you have issues returning items or accessing the services you need, email library@napier.ac.uk or call 0131 455 3500.
