Indexing to periodical articles is available via paper and CD-ROM indexes at each library. Faculty requesting material not available at the Blinn library have access to TexShare, a resource sharing initiative, which allows Blinn College to utilize several on-line databases. These databases may include full-text articles as well as indexing. For further information on additional databases, consult the library's web page. 5.2.3 Fines and Charges Faculty members are not charged overdue fines, but are expected to return materials promptly.
Faculty members are responsible for charges for lost or damaged materials.
5.2.4 Library Cards Faculty members are issued library cards upon request. When the item is returned, it is held at the circulation desk for the requestor, who is notified by letter. If a circulating item is recalled, faculty are asked to respond promptly. If the library needs additional copies of an item, the library will attempt to purchase additional copies to meet faculty needs. 5.2.7 Reserve System Items owned by an instructor and items from the library may be placed on reserve.
