The normal loan period for books from the circulating collection is four weeks. If books are needed for more than four weeks for instruction or research, faculty may request an extended loan period of one year. However, such books are subject to recall after four weeks if requested by another borrower and must be returned to the library within three days of the recall. Recalled books may be recharged after their interim use. Other Materials Restricted loan items, including materials from the Curriculum Resources Center, Special Collections, and Reserve, circulate to faculty for specified time periods.
Periodicals circulate to faculty for one week.
Special permission may be obtained from a reference librarian to borrow reference collections materials. Loans to Faculty Spouses Faculty spouses may borrow library materials for the normal four week period after applying for a borrower's card from the Circulation department. Damage and Replacement Costs Faculty are responsible for the replacement costs of library materials that are lost or severely damaged. This privilege includes the borrowing of books. Presentation of a valid State University I.D. card enables such use.
