And a bonus #TopTipThursTAY - don't forget to use your college libraries too! They can also purchase items you may need, and other colleges may be willing to let you look at a book if it's the only copy in Oxford!

Need to read to a book that's not in the Bodleian's collections?
If you're a University of Oxford member, you can either:
📖Request the Bodleian purchases a copy, using the 'Request purchase' form on SOLO
OR
📖Request an Inter Library Loan- which is the topic of today's #TopTipThursTAY!

This week's #TopTipThursTAY - vacation loans!
Plan on reading much over Christmas vacation?
Starting Monday, any loanable Taylor material and some eligible loanable offsite items will have a vacation loan applied to them- so you won't have to worry about returning things over the break.

Keeping books moving in and out of the library ensures everyone in the university has access to our collections ♻️ That's our top priority, so speak to a member of staff (or email us) if you have any questions or concerns.
Thanks for reading this week's #TopTipThursTAY!

Wondering how long you can take out books for? 🤔
Most of the Taylorian's books are Fixed Week Loans, which means you can have them for 7 days. The books automatically renew for up to 16 weeks if nobody else has requested them.

📕Hopefully this #TopTipThursTAY helps you make the most of our huge offsite collection!

A screenshot of a results page on SOLO. “candide and other romances” has been typed in the search bar at the top and the first result, a book of the same name, has been circled in red.
Are you ready for another #TopTipThursTAY?
📚Did you know the Bodleian recently expanded the number of books that can be loaned from our offsite storage facility? We now have 2 million borrowable items in offsite storage!
📖You can check if an item is borrowable by looking on SOLO. Let's search!
