The book I am looking for appears to be available in the Library, according to the Library’s Web OPAC, but I cannot find it on the shelf. What should I do?

The book I am looking for appears to be available in the Library, according to the Library’s Web OPAC, but I cannot find it on the shelf. What should I do?

The actions a user can take if a printed item is not located on the shelf are to check:

  • the book carts, study tables (as another user might have left it there) and photocopy machines
  • if the call number is correct
  • if the item has been borrowed on not
  • if the item is on a waitlist
  • in special collections that are usually located in special areas of the branches

Users can always address the Library staff for assistance.
