Additionally, the recall policy effects all patrons identically, regardless of their library status. Patrons are given 10 days to finish with the material before it is due. There is no way to prevent an item from being recalled . Material not owned by The University Libraries can be requested through the library's Interlibrary Loan Department. ILL will also bring in photocopies of journal articles at no charge.
Photocopies usually arrive quicker than book requests.
These databases are linked to other libraries holdings, and patrons may make book requests directly from these sites. Material borrowed through ILL must be returned to Pattee. Although patrons may use the book drops, it is recommened that ILL material be dropped off directly at the Circulation Desk. Patrons may contact the ILL Team in the event of a special needs situation.
