The other option is to make arrangements with the library staff for accessing any books that are checked out. Current and bound journals, reprints, and rare books are to be used in the library only. Ask library staff for items in locked cabinets. Reserve materials are used in the library only and must be recorded in the ledger on the Circulation Desk. New books received in the library remain on the new bookshelf for 2 weeks, after which checkout is possible.
Borrowers are responsible for all checked out materials until they are returned to the library.
Book return slot is located at the circulation counter. Instead, leave materials on tables or place them on the book trucks for reshelving. Return library materials prior to graduation or termination of employment. Replacement costs may be assessed for damaged or lost library materials. A key to the library is issued by the Marine Science Librarian to full-time Marine Science Institute research scientists and Department of Marine Science faculty and graduate students only.
