Is there a print book you'd like to borrow, but it's at another Library (for example, the Davis Centre Library on main campus)? These are the steps to follow in order to request that a book be mailed to you:
Step 1: Search for the book in the Library Catalogue (also known as Omni)
Step 2: Click on the book and under "Get It," choose "Sign in." Sign in with your WatIAM.
Step 3: Once you are signed in, scroll down again to "Get It" and click on "Get it from a Waterloo Library."
Step 4: A form will appear, and under "Pickup Location," choose "Books by Mail." Pharmacy is not listed as a pickup location as access to building and Pharmacy Library is more restricted than the main campus Libraries.
Step 5: Wait for an email from the Library, where you will be asked to input the address you want the book to be mailed to. You can choose any address (your office; home address, etc.). There is no charge for this service as the Library absorbs the cost.
If the print book is in the Pharmacy Library (PHR 0013), you can access the Library with your fob and sign out the book using the self-checkout machine located near the front of the Library. If you would prefer to have the Admin Assistant sign out the book for you, please email pharmacy.library@uwaterloo.ca with the details about the book (e.g. Title, Author(s), Publication Year, Edition).
Due to their popularity, some pharmacy textbooks are placed in "controlled access" in the Pharmacy Library, PHR 0013.
In order to sign-out a book from controlled access, please contact pharmacy.library@uwaterloo.ca
Controlled access items have limited borrowing periods. Most items can only be signed out for 1 day (24 hours), so that they are available for other students to use.
Here is an example of a controlled access book:
You can use the Pharmacy Library!
If you are, you can borrow books from any TUG Library (University of Waterloo, University of Guelph, or Wilfrid Laurier University).
