Can I go to another university library in Catalonia to collect a book in person?
You can pick up the book in person at the university library which owns it.
You will always have to prove your identity with your UOC card.
Before going, and only the first time, you'll need to sign in to My account with your Virtual Campus username and password to automatically update your details as a user of the loan service.
