Earlsfort Terrace Library

mdebets

Can anyone tell me, where exactly the Earlsfort Terrace Library is. I have to return a book before Monday and I don't fance driving out to Richview.

Thanks

Pythia

You'll have to return it to Richview I'm afraid.

mdebets

Why? The web page says that the Earlsfort Terrace Library is open Saturdays from 9:30 to 13:00.

Pythia

Because they belong to Richview.

mdebets

No, I have books for the Main library, which are due next week, but I'm not in the country next week, so I have to return them tomorrow and the only libraris open on Saturdays at the moment are Richview or Earlsfort Terrace and as far as I know, I can return books of the Main library at all branches.

Pythia

Short term have to go back to the main library, long term to any library.

mdebets

Thanks, I didn't know that you couldn't return Short Loan Books to other branch libraries. Well, that means I have to bite the bullet and pay the fines then.

Pythia

Apparently you can add the library to your msn and ask them questions.

This info is coming from irlrobins.

Its advisable, but theyve always let me return short term books to the terrace or the main without my pocket suffering. Maybe thats just because the library woman has the hots for me.:)

Double check this first at 7167583 but Im sure there is an out of hours box for returns at the main library. Its at the entrance. Gets emptied everyday.

There is one, but around 4 weeks ago, the Library building was closed on Saturday, so there was no possibility to reach the book drop.

You do realise that short loan fines are 20c per hour for the first 2 hours overdue and then 30c an hour! So that will add up very quickly. If possible get someone to

1) ideally drop it into the main library drop box or
2) drop it into the Terrace which is just off the south-east corner of Stephen's Green, near Leeson Street, you can't miss it, it's beside the National Concert Hall, if you're luckly they'll accept it there as InFront says. Try and do the seductive biting lower lip thing if all else fails...

Go in the heavy doors at the right hand side of the building, up the stairs to the right and it's about half way down the corridor ahead of you, on the right.

Sorry for the thread hijack, but I've a quick library question.

When I reserve a book, how long will they hold it for me before giving it away?

Two weeks, as far as I know.
