Book order and collect service
Due to the continuing high number of Covid-19 cases in Bangkok, the library will unfortunately be closed until further notice. We will notify you as soon as the government allows us to reopen.
For your reading pleasure, we are offering a book order & collect service so you can check out and return books during the closure. This service is exclusively for current members only.
New members and membership rules and benefits
Ordering Books for Check-Out
The ONLINE CATALOGUE is available on our website to search for available books.
Please request books by sending an email to librarian@neilsonhayslibrary.org. In your email, please state clearly the book titles and authors. If any of the requested children’s picture books are not available, we reserve the right to replace them with any other similar books.
After receiving your request, we will find the books, check them out to you in our system, and send you a reply email notifying you that they are ready for collection. Please allow 1-2 days after sending your request for processing.
The following borrowing privileges for members still apply:
- Family 15 books (includes 4 new books)
- Single Adult 10 books (includes 2 new books)
- Senior Citizen (over 65) 10 books (includes 2 new books)
- Single Child (up to age 12) 10 children’s books (includes 2 new books)
Collection:
Members can come in person, or arrange to send your driver or a messenger to collect the books at the main library gate.
Pick-up is available Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00-15:00.
For pick-up at the library, the outside gate will be closed so please call 02-233-1731 or 080-076 2776 approximately 20 minutes before arrival so we can have your books ready and be at the gate.
Book Return:
When picking up any new check-outs, please return any books that you currently have checked-out so they are available for others to read.
Books can be returned at any time by placing them in the Dropbox to the left of the main library gate. If you do not check out any new books during the library closure, any books currently borrowed do not need to be renewed while the library is closed. Once the library has been reopened, you will have 2 weeks to either return or renew them.
