Many reserve items are now available on the Electronic Reserve System, which is accessible on the world wide web to any USF student. Circulating books that are shelved on the third through fifth floors can be checked out at the circulation service desk on the first floor. The Library uses an automated circulation system which facilitates easy and quick check out of books. Renewals can be done in person, by email or over the world wide web. A statement of the library's circulation policy is available at the Access Services Service desk and on the USF Library's home page.
Interlibrary services can obtain materials from other libraries upon request.
Thus students have access to resources beyond the onsite collections at each campus. Two labs, located on the second and sixth floors, are reserved for library instruction. The third lab, located on the first floor, is jointly maintained with Academic Computing as an instructional and open-use lab with facilitates for word processing, electronic mail, and printing.
