Curbside Pick-up

Curbside Service for outdoor pickup in Berkeley:

Note: Due to the volume of requests and limited staff, books may take a day to be pulled. If you are able to enter the building, it is faster to not request the item, but get it directly from the shelf during any open hours.

First: Place any items you want on hold and wait for them to arrive at the hold shelf. Use the request button to select the books, and check the status of them using "Your Library Account." Generally, it takes a business day for items to arrive on the hold shelf, but it could be longer if you are requesting from multiple locations or if the item is in use by someone else. You will get an email when the book is ready.

Then: After your books have arrived on the hold shelf, come by the library during open hours. You can call (510-649-2500) or ring the doorbell for assistance. Please do not crowd near the door, as others may be entering the building. The staff will check out the books and bring them outside to you. No appointments needed!

Need help requesting books? Contact us at library@gtu.edu or chat a librarian from this page.

Returning Items?

Please place returns in the book drop, do not hand them to the staff member.
