Another fine mess
We are introducing fines for overdue items at Colchester. Anything borrowed on or after 2nd July 2007 will attract fines if it is returned late. Fines will be charged at the rate of 10p per book per day.
Books can be renewed by phone. We will shortly be taking on a new book drop box just like the one at Southend , which will be available when the library and the Postgrad Centre are closed. We do also send reminders about overdue items so please ensure we have your current address details, including a full postcode, and your email address, so that reminders reach you in good time.
For more information please see Colchester library's own blog.

Chaos at Colchester
The phone line at Colchester is out of order, although it is still possible to leave voicemail messages which we are able to pick up from another line. You can always email your query - library.services@essexrivers.nhs.uk. BT are aware of the issue and are working hard to fix it.
On a slightly different note we've just taken delivery of a brand new, digital, full colour copier/printer. We are waiting for a new network point so that the machine will print from any PC in the library, a replacement system for charging, and some software to ensure it all runs smoothly. Please bear with us as we work to get it all up and running.

The library at Colchester General Hospital will be closed over the long Easter weekend - 6th to 9th April inclusive.
Essex Rivers staff can always make use of the PCs in the restaurant at Colchester General Hospital, and, of course, all your online services will available while we're closed.
Happy Easter!

Ring ring!
We're experiencing problems with the library phone line at Colchester. Please feel free to ring the usual number and leave a voicemail message - we're checking for them regularly. We're not answering the phone as all we get is a deafening crackle. You can always email us or send a fax or even a good old fashioned letter. Contact details are on the web pages.
