Brighton & Hove's library catalogue - available online

• renew your books
• search for a particular title
• find out where it is held
• reserve an item and pick it up at the library of your choice

What do I need?

Searching the catalogue can be done by anyone, but other services such as renewing books online can only be done by members. All you need is your library number (written over the barcode of your library card) and a PIN, available at your local library on production of a valid library membership card.

What if the item is not in Brighton & Hove?

If there is a non-fiction book you seek that we can't satisfy within our library services we can look elsewhere and perhaps obtain a copy for you through Inter-Library Loan.
