Who is this service available to?
The inter-library loans service is available to all our colleagues employed by Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
Request an Article
Simply fill in our online request form.
As soon as the article(s) arrives you will be informed via email. Journal articles normally arrive within 1-5 working days and in most cases can be sent electronically directly to your inbox.
Any articles fulfilled by The British Library are only available in print form, they need to be collected from us or posted out to you. A signed copyright declaration is also required.
Request a Book
Any books that are not part of our collection, may be available to borrow for a short loan period from The British Library.
All books requested must be collected from and returned to the Education Centre Library.
The British Library establishes the loan period for the book and the return date is clearly noted inside the front cover. Renewals (at further cost) are only available with The British Library’s approval and not always available.
Overdue or unreturned
If the book(s) isn’t returned to us on or before the return date any fines incurred will be charged back to the borrower.
Charges
The British Library do charge for this service which is paid for by Library & Knowledge Service. Therefore, please ensure that the reason for the loan is relevant and useful for patient care/research.
