Return Library Materials & Interlibrary Loans

As we enter the holiday season, it's important to remember that the deadline for returning all library materials is rapidly approaching—please ensure that everything is returned by December 16! Don't hesitate to get in touch with Leeah Christ with any questions.

If you borrowed an item through an interlibrary loan with a due date extending beyond the semester's end, please return it to the library before departing for winter break. Graduate students, faculty, and staff may keep their interlibrary loans until the specified due date unless it falls during winter break. In such cases, you may renew the item by accessing your interlibrary loan account. Please contact Donald Martin with any questions regarding interlibrary loan.

Please see page three to view our Christmas break hours. We look forward to welcoming you back to the library when regular operating hours resume on January 13, 2025.
