Retired Faculty Loans

General Information

  • Patrons qualify for a free library card, and they must apply for a new library card annually.
  • Application forms are available at the Access Services Desk. The patron receives a photocopy of the application. The library will process the original application, make the card, and notify the patron.
  • The annual renewal application for the library card keeps the patron’s record current and accurate.
  • At checkout, the library card and a photo ID (driver’s license or passport) must be presented.
  • With permission from the faculty member’s university ex-department, the patron may acquire items through the Library’s ILL department.
  • This ensures that the information in the patron record is current and accurate. The library card can only be used by the person to whom it was issued.
  • Library laptops, hotspots, DVDs, CDs, bound periodicals, and archives and special collections do not circulate.
