Students may order articles free of charge in most cases. However, if there are an excessive number of article requests from one person, the library will have to charge for the photocopy service. For best results first check the NMSU Online Catalog. Journal articles available in hard copy at the NMSU Library will generally be sent within 24 hours. If the NMSU Library does not own your requested article, it has to be ordered through a vendor or another library and it will take longer.
Average time is eight days, but in some cases it takes longer.
For each article request, students must provide a complete citation, name, status, address, phone number, and email address if available. The Passport form must be presented at the circulation desk of the library you are visiting, a form can be faxed or mailed to you ahead of time. Simply contact the Distance Education Librarian for more information. C ourse R eserves Some classes may have electronic reserves available.
