Computer Animation and Visual Effects: Books

Why are books useful?

Books give an overview of a subject, providing useful introductions that supplement teaching. They help with expanding your knowledge of the wider computer animation and visual effects landscape. Also, books can be great source of inspiration for your work.

RENEWING LIBRARY BOOKS

All items will be initially loanable for one week and automatically renewed weekly for a further 7 days each time (maximum of 99 times).

However, if an item on loan is reserved or recalled for another borrower, it will not be renewed. Please return such items as soon as possible and within 7 days of a recall notice. If reserved or recalled items are not returned you will be prevented from borrowing more items and possibly charged for a replacement.

RESERVE A BOOK THAT IS OUT ON LOAN

Our reservations service allows you to reserve a book or DVD when all copies are out on loan.

When a copy becomes available, we will put it aside and send you an email to let you know it's here.
