Articles from journals not owned by the University of Chicago Libraries can be requested through Interlibrary Loan . Titles in the SSA newsletter collection are located to the west of the Journal collection. The collection is shelved primarily by title, with some exceptions. Items are arranged by call number, and are primarily for use in the Library, but can be checked out for two hour periods. The Reserve collection also contains readings for the PhD qualifying exam and a number of high-use general reference books.
Most items circulate for either two hours or forty-eight hours.
Phd readings which are not being used for a course are loaned for one week. Please be aware of the due date and time when checking out items from reserve, reference, and the journal collection, since fines for late return of this material are steep. The pamphlet collection is located in the file cabinets at the west end of the library. Items circulate for the same period as material in the book collection.
