After a pause period due to the change in the Library Management System, on January the 10th the PUC (Consortium Loan) service will be restored in the in-person mode.

Users of the institutions that form part of the PUC [link: https://www.csuc.cat/ca/serveis/prestec-consorciat-puc] will be able to borrow documents by going directly to the library where they are deposited. Users must be accredited as users of their own institution.

PUC loan terms have not changed - you can borrow up to 10 documents from other institutions for 21 days and renew them up to 6 times.

On the other hand, users who have PUC loans pending (pre-summer 2021 loans) will see that they will appear in your account with a return date of February 1st, 2022. Users can return them at any of the UAB Libraries or at the library that owns the document in question.

We continue to work to restore the consortium loan in online mode. 

You can consult the original news on the UAB website.
