Each reader can reserve as many as four materials (including books, video-audio materials and retrieval requests). Retrieval Request is only available for the main library and its branch libraries, which is not available for alliance libraries.

• If the material’s status is “Available”, the material is available for Cross-Library Retrieval Request.
• The service is provided between branch libraries (Main library, Liming branch, or Zhongxing branch)only. The pickup location cannot be where the request material been kept.
• After you submitted the Retrieval request, the book status will turn into “On Application”. However, on-site readers can still check out the book you requested if they obtained the book from shelf before the library staff does. Once the book is checked out by others, the request applicant would be the first in the waiting list.
