Finding what you want<br />

For books and journals, search SAULCAT, our online library<br />

catalogue: it lists material held in the Main <strong>Library</strong> and most <strong>of</strong><br />

the outlying libraries. Once you’ve found what you want, note the<br />

classmark (the code we use to organise items). You can �nd the<br />

classmark on the spine <strong>of</strong> each item (e.g. BF319.F8). Most books<br />

can be found on Level 3, arranged by their classmark. Journals can<br />

be found on Level 4, also arranged by their classmark. There are<br />

some book collections on Level 4: check the �oor directories.<br />

Books and journals dated 1900 or earlier, rare books,<br />

photographs, archive and manuscript material are available for<br />

loan or consultation from the Special Collections department<br />

on the North Haugh. Contact Special Collections to arrange an<br />

appointment: speccoll@st-andrews.ac.uk<br />

Electronic resources<br />

The <strong>Library</strong> o�ers access to a large number <strong>of</strong> electronic<br />

resources. A wide range <strong>of</strong> specialised subject databases can be<br />

found on our web pages: www.st-andrews.ac.uk/library. We also<br />

have thousands <strong>of</strong> electronic journals, and a growing number<br />

<strong>of</strong> e-books. These can all be found in SAULCAT and on SEEKER<br />

(SEEKER searches across our online resources). If you need help<br />

searching any electronic resources please ask a member <strong>of</strong> sta�<br />

or email library@st-andrews.ac.uk<br />

Self-Service<br />

Once you’ve found the books or items you need, you can borrow<br />

them using the self-service machines on each level. Items can be<br />

returned using the returns machine on Level 2. When the <strong>Library</strong><br />

is closed, you can return items by posting them through the book<br />

drop outside.<br />

Lost your ID card?<br />

Please let the <strong>Library</strong> know. Apply and pay for a new card via the<br />

Current <strong>St</strong>udents page on the <strong>University</strong> website:<br />

www.st-andrews.ac.uk/students/tech/idcards<br />

Can’t �nd a book?<br />

Please speak to a member <strong>of</strong> <strong>Library</strong> sta� or ask at the Helpdesk.<br />

If the item you want is on loan to someone else?<br />

Most books (except Short Loan books) can be recalled if they are<br />

on loan. Find the book in SAULCAT and click on the Recall button<br />

at the top <strong>of</strong> the page. Please allow 7 days for the book to be<br />

recalled.<br />

If the item is not in the Main <strong>Library</strong>?<br />

Books and items for some subjects may be located in one <strong>of</strong> our<br />

outlying libraries, e.g. <strong>St</strong> Mary’s, J. F. Allen. Please visit that library<br />

to borrow items. If the item is located in our <strong>Library</strong> <strong>St</strong>ore, you<br />

can recall it. For details see:<br />

www.st-andrews.ac.uk/library/services/borrowing/librarystore/.<br />

Short loan collection<br />

Material in heavy demand is placed in the self-service Short Loan<br />

area on Level 2 near the Helpdesk. To �nd out which items are on<br />

Short Loan you can either browse the shelves or check SAULCAT.<br />
