An email is automatically generated and sent in the following cases:

  • interlibrary loan item is available to be collected
  • as a Friendly Reminder to remind users their library materials are soon due (Only via email and without guarantee)

HM students will automatically receive reminders via their ‘hm.edu’ email account. Other users can receive this service by providing their email address in their online catalogue User Account.
