I'm on a University of Bristol course but don't have a U-card - how can I borrow books?

You will need to obtain a U-card from Card Services at Royal Fort Lodge before you can borrow any books. The printing of your U-card will generate your library account within 24 hours, and will also function as your library card. You will not be able to borrow books before your library account is up and running.

If you are making a special trip to campus in order to visit the library, we recommend contacting Card Services well in advance so that they can print your card a couple of days prior to your visit. You will then be able to collect your U-card before going to the library and borrowing your books. Please bring a photo ID when collecting your card.
