Circulation and Library Check-outs

The library is currently open for you to check out materials. Right now, all items checked out during the Spring semester have a due date of October 1. Please make every attempt to return all the library items you checked out (including computing equipment) during the spring by that date. 

Interlibrary Loan

Interlibrary Loan is available, but in a limited capacity. Not all libraries are open for service, and some that are may have delayed response times in shipping out materials. Please plan ahead and order early to assure that your requests arrive.
