Postal Requests

We offer a postal service to DMU students within the UK:

  • studying on a registered distance learning course, excluding overseas students
  • studying part-time
  • studying on an apprenticeship
  • studying and commuting in from home

This service is free to use, but you will need to pay the cost for returning any books back to us. Books should be sent by recorded delivery.

Please note:

If a book you have on loan is reserved by another student you will need to return it within 7 days from the date notified. Returns can be made in-person or by post. Charges may apply for late returns.

If you request a book or a photocopy or a chapter/article where an electronic copy is available, you will be directed to use the electronic copy. Please let us know when applying if you would have particular difficulties in accessing or using the electronic copy.
