Ever wondered what happens between requesting a book from our collection to collecting it in our reading room?
From deep in the stacks to collection desk via a ride in the book elevator and on the robot delivery vehicles, books are brought to you by a combination of clever technology and savvy librarians. Watch as Blinky Bill gets requested, travels through the stack, and gets delivered to the reading room. All you need is a free library card!
