The University Library sends email notices to UWA staff and students via their official UWA email account. All other members receive notices via the email address provided when obtaining membership. 

Notices may include: 

  • Courtesy reminders when loan due dates are approaching.
  • Reminders about overdue loans.
  • Request notices when another borrower has requested an item you have on loan.
  • Collection notices when an item you have requested is available for pick-up.
UWA students with a mobile phone number registered in studentConnect will receive some notices by SMS (text message), in addition to email.
