Policy & Procedure Manual

Reference Materials

Reference books do NOT normally circulate. However, under special circumstances, arrangements can be made. With the permission of the librarian on duty at the Reference Desk, students may check out a reference book. The student must get a note from the librarian with the following:

-        Date

-        Stated permission for the item to circulate

-        The loan period being allowed (usually 1 or 2 days)

-        The Librarian’s signature

You will need to have a supervisor override the circulation block to check out the reference book. The due date must be modified to match the loan period indicated by the Reference Librarian.
