How to Check out Books in Mullins Library

The Circulation Desk is on Level 2 in Mullins Library. Check out books by bringing the item(s) to the Circulation Desk, with your student ID., which is your library card. The library staff will use the computer to link the records of the books with your name and address record.

Even though you trust your friends, don't let them use books that are checked out against your name except under your care, or check out books using your I.D. card. If they lose them or damage them, you will still be responsible for them. If you wouldn't send them to the department store with your credit cards, don't lend them your I.D. card.

Use common sense to protect the materials. Don't leave them on the window sill, don't use salami as a book mark, and don't lay them flat on the page faces. Directly or indirectly, we all own and pay for these materials.
