Alumni may obtain library privileges for Bush Library at the Circulation Desk. Books are checked out at the Circulation Desk on the main floor of the library, and circulate for six weeks. Faculty may check books out for one whole term. Renewals may be requested twice. Reference books, periodicals, and certain curriculum lab materials do not circulate.
Music CDs circulate for three days.
Reserve materials have a loan period of two hours and may not be taken out of the Library. Your Hamline I.D. will function as your Library card once you have been entered into the CLIC database. Although students' records are entered into CLIC in coordination with registration, there may be a brief lag between the time you register and the time your record is added. Before you check out materials from Bush or any of the consortium libraries for the first time , you should stop by Bush Library's Circulation Desk and have your I.D. scanned to verify that you are in the CLIC database. If you have registered, but are not in the system, you will be asked to present a copy of your class schedule to verify that you are indeed enrolled at Hamline University.
