New charges for interlibrary loans



Unfortunately the British Library has raised its charges for articles and books. We have managed to keep our prices the same for 18 months but we have had to raise our prices for the new financial year.

The cost of requesting an article will now be £9. The cost of borrowing a book for a six-week loan will now be £12.50. If a renewal is required after this time, the charge will be £4.45.

However, the good news is that we are keeping our prices the same for articles and books from NHS libraries around the region. So if the article or book you need is available from a library in the north west, the charge will still be £1.
