Get It !: Borrowing within the PITT Libraries 匹兹堡大学图书馆系统内的借阅服务

Using Get It! you will be able to have a book that is NOT CHECKED OUT to be delivered to you from any of the ULS libraries, including the Storage facility and the four branch campus libraries.

For instance, you normally check out books from Bradford Campus Library, but the book you are interested in has been checked out by someone else, or Bradford Campus Library does not have what you are looking for, but the Storage facility or the Greensburg Campus Library does, then you can use Get It! to have it delivered to Hanley Library.

Get It!服务能帮助你获取大学图书馆系统内任何一家图书馆没有被外借的图书,包括校外书库(Storage)和4个分校区的图书馆。 比如,您经常从Bradford Campus Library借书,但您现在想借的这本书已经被借出,或者不在Bradford,而是在Storage,或者在Greensburg Campus。这时,您就可以使用Get It!,使您需要的书送到Hanley Library。 具体步骤如下:

  •  在PittCat上找到那本书的记录
  •  点击记录上方的Get It!链接
  •  用您的匹兹堡大学电子邮件名和密码登录
  • 登录进Get IT!平台后,您会看见两个选择: Recall(催还),还有Get It!(送达)。根据您的情况任选其一。
  •  按照电脑屏幕上的要求输入所需信息,选择Bradford Lending 作为图书被送达的图书馆。如果不选,系统会自动选择Hillman Gr. Fl. Lending。
  • 提交服务申请。图书到达后,您会收到电子邮件通知。
