CRRS Rare Book Request Form
Please double-check that the type of rare book reflects the shelving location in the library catalogue. Errors in this field can result in delays fulfilling your request.
* For urgent requests, please email crrs.rarebooks@utoronto.ca to see if they can be accommodated. Please advise the CRRS front desk staff or email crrs.rarebooks@utoronto.ca when you have finished working with a book or if you will not be able to return to consult it within 2 weeks.
If you have a library card barcode or student number, please fill it in here (required). Your barcode is the 14- or 16-digit number printed under the barcode of your TCard, e.g. 2176100123456701. If you do not have a TCard, please indicate "I do not have a University of Toronto library barcode" (for external faculty and staff).
e.g. Faculty of Information, Department of History, Department of English, etc.
