Returning Books
Books may be returned outside regular operating hours by placing them in the return box located near the library entrance.
 

Need a book past its due date?
Photograph the barcode located on the inside cover of the book and send a request, including your full name and ID number, to elisheva.edelman@biu.ac.il.
Once your request has been processed, you will receive an email confirmation. 
Please note: if the book has already been requested by another user, your request will not be approved.
