Information about Book Drop Box Facility
On the suggestion of students, the Vikram Sarabhai Library initiated a drop box facility in the new campus for returning of library books. The book drop box has been placed at the entrance of the underpass from the new campus near the AXIS Bank ATM. This is to facilitate easy return of issued library books by just dropping the books inside the drop box instead of coming physically to the library to return the book.
Please find below the rules regarding the Drop Box Facility:
- Users may return their issued book/s through the library drop-box.
- The Library will arrange to collect the books daily at 5 p.m. The user will get a confirmation mail from library circulation once the book is returned in the library software.
- All returned books are subject to Library checking. Readers are responsible for any loss/damage/marking/underlining/highlighting or sticky notes of all kinds, mutilating or tearing pages, etc.
- Large sized books that do not fit into the drop box should be returned at the Library circulation counter during library hours. Please do not keep them outside the drop box.
RFID Book Drop Box Facility:
Vikram Sarabhai Library has the RFID based book drop box facility available near the library entrance, User can drop the issued books (one book at a time) in the drop box and books will be returned automatically. User will receive a receipt of returned books from the drop box and receive a book return intimation email also.
