All checked-out materials are subject to immediate recall
if needed for course reserves.
Books
Books are due at the end of the academic year unless
recalled by another patron. If recalled, books are due
three weeks after the date of check-out. If a book is
recalled you will receive an email notice with a new due
date. Recalls are enforced for all members of the campus
community. Cage books circulate under
the same guidelines as books in the regular stacks. However,
you will need to ask a reference librarian to retrieve
the book for you. The librarian will take the book to
the circulation desk where you can check it out.
Course Reserves
Normally, course reserves circulate for two hours, one
day, or three days.
Permanent Reserve
These books, kept behind the circulation desk, normally
circulate for two hours.

one week. There are some items in the collection that
are noncirculating. The catalog provides this information.
Please speak with the Listening
Room supervisor for assistance. You may also read

Room/AV Center circulation policies.

Periodicals (magazines and journals)
Periodicals located on the third floor circulate for

need a copy of an article, please ask at the circulation
desk. If you can wait for 24 hours, we will make the copy
for you. The unbound issues of some journals and magazines
are kept behind the circulation desk. These items circulate
for two hours. You must have your Pioneer One-Card to
check these out. Locations for journals are indicated
in the catalog record. Please check with a reference librarian,
