Finding library books placed in open bookshelves has become a little easier. The Leiden University Libraries catalogue has recently been equipped with a new 'Locate' button for open stacks materials. Clicking the button will lead the user to a page showing in which library building and, if appliccable, on what floor and/or study room entrance the item is located.

Loanable items from open shelves can also be requested using the catalogue, to be picked up at a later time. All necessary data regarding the item's loan policy and availability can be found in the catalogue record details.
