Ask yourself: can you work with e-books? Do you prefer to have your own copy of a book so you can fold pages, write notes in the margins or use a highlighter to annotate the text (*librarians across the world gasp in horror!*). Can the University Library provide a copy of the book you need to use via the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Click+Collect (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/ncl.ac.uk\/library\/borrow-reserve-return\/click-and-collect\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click+Collect<\/a> service?
