How do I ... receive Library reminders by email?
All messages to Birkbeck students are sent by emai?l to the contact email address on your student record. You can check this, and edit it, by logging into the My Birkbeck site. Follow the link to the My Birkbeck Profile.
Library messages to Birkbeck staff (except Sessional Lecturers and Honorary/Visiting staff) are sent to the email address on your HR record. To amend your details go to http://www.bbk.ac.uk/myhrdata.
External members of the Library, Birkbeck Sessional Lecturers and Honorary/Visiting Birkbeck staff should register an email address with us by following these steps:
You will need your Library card. Register your email address here using the Library catalogue system
- Step 1. login using the barcode number (without spaces) on your Library card
- Step 2. enter your email address
- Step 3. click on the "Update email address" button
The changes will take effect immediately. You can also use this method to update your email address if it changes. Birkbeck students must use My Birkbeck to edit their address. Birkbeck staff should go to http://www.bbk.ac.uk/myhrdata.
All readers should use an address that is checked regularly, that doesn't get full, and that is able to receive messages from the Library.
In addition to receiving notification of reservations awaiting collection and overdue books, everyone who opts for messages by email will also receive a reminder message about two days before books are due back as a prompt to return or renew. We will also email you when an item you have on loan has been requested by another reader.
The details you submit will be used for library purposes only. College Data Protection Statement.
