Faculty members with a campus address that is served by McGill’s internal mail system can have library materials delivered to their offices.
To request faculty office delivery:
- Search for the item in the library catalogue
- Click on the red "Request / Hold or Scan" button
- From the Pick Up Options menu, choose "Faculty office delivery"
- Enter the address of your office in the "Anything else we need to know about this request?" box
Please note: for privacy reasons, the request form is not automatically populated with your office address. If you do not include your office address on the request form, you will receive an email from library staff and your requested item will be redirected to the hold shelf.
Once the item is retrieved, it will be checked out to your account. You will receive an email notification of this. Your requested item will be placed in the internal mail on the same day you receive the email.
The item can normally be expected to arrive in your faculty mailroom in 2 to 4 business days after the email.
If your requested item is on loan to another user, the item will sent to you once it has been returned to the library.
Library material borrowed through faculty office delivery may be returned via campus mail. You may use the envelope the item was delivered in, but please be sure to change the destination address to the library. Materials and envelopes may also be returned at any library location.
