My debts and payments

See Debts and Payments.

Loans and renewals

This area lists your loans and renewal options. If a loan is overdue, the return date is shown in red. (The exact appearance depends on how Arena is configured.)

Reservations

This area lists your reservations. The queue number indicates the number of users that have reservations for the item. Reservations are handled on a first come first served basis. These reservations will therefore be fulfilled before your reservation is fulfilled.

The pickup number is used for self-service reservation handling. When the item that you have reserved is available for collection (pickup) it will be placed on the reservation collection shelf at designated collection location (usually inside the library), where you may find and collect it. The item will be labelled with the pickup number. For example, if you reserved a book which has pickup number 123, then you should look for a label bearing number 123, affixed to the item, when you collect it, to ensure that you are collecting the correct item.
