Books checked out from the Law Library must be returned to the Law Library and not to another campus library. Likewise, materials checked out from another campus library must be returned to that same library, e.g. materials checked out from the Gorgas Library must be returned to the Gorgas Library. Reserve Materials Materials kept on reserve can be checked out by law students for four hours. Certain reserve materials, such as hornbooks and nutshells, may be checked out overnight. Overnight materials must be checked out no earlier than two hours prior to the library's closing and must be returned the following day within one hour of the library's opening.
Fines are one dollar per hour per item.
The majority of the library's videotape collection is housed in room 203D, which is located at the end of the main floor's hallway. The tapes can be borrowed at any time, but must be returned the following day within one hour of the library's opening. The remaining videotapes are kept on reserve and can be checked out for use within the library for four hours. Fines for failure to return a tape are one dollar per item per hour. Interlibrary Loans Materials that are unavailable from the Law Library or elsewhere on the University of Alabama campus may be requested from other libraries through interlibrary loan.
