This is to remind you that as of this afternoon, the Science Museum Library will cease to run a store service collection for materials in the Central Library store. This is to facilitate removal of parts of the Science Museum Library collections to SML Swindon.
As such any material you wish to access from the service will need to be submitted as an ILL request. Please make a note on the form that it is a periodical that is located within the store.
As theses will remain accessible, there will be a store collection service twice a day from the Level 2 Help Desk. For further information, see the store service website.
