LAMP (LibrAry Materials by Post)

The LAMP Service (LibrAry Materials by Post) is a subscription based service which enables you to have books and photocopies of articles posted to your home address. It is available to all Birkbeck staff and students. You may find it particularly useful if you are a distance learning student or if you are not able to visit the library frequently.

Birkbeck students with disabilities may be able to join the service for free on the recommendation of the College Disability Officer, Mark Pimm. If you think you may be eligible for free membership, please first contact Mark Pimm in the Disability Office on 020 7631 6315 or email m.pimm@bbk.ac.uk.

NEW: Requests for books can now be submitted using an online request form

(Due to copyright regulations, requests for photocopies must still be submitted via post, fax or scanned to a reasonable quality and emailed to the LAMP Service email address.)
