Borrowing items
Most books can only be loaned to one person at a time. If a book you would like to borrow is already on loan, place a reservation on the title and you will be notified when it is available.
BorrowBox from multiple libraries
If you have BorrowBox access from your local public library, you can still use UKHSA’s BorrowBox collection. Log out of the app and log back in with your UKHSA account to access UKHSA content.
