All patrons are welcome to use the collections on site.
To qualify for and access these privileges, the patron must provide proof of qualification, acceptable picture identification, complete a user application, and have no outstanding debt to the Library. The first transaction may take place at the time of application. Privileges expire at the end of the semester of application but may be renewed upon request. Visiting Scholars may also include professors or other researchers. For this group, proof of qualification is a letter of introduction from the applicant's thesis advisor or college library.
