Media - 14 day loan period or by need
Bones & Models - Due date determined by need
Reserves & Reference - Library use only, or use by permission
Databases & Online Journals - Access Databases and Journals with your Logan email credentials, on or off-campus.
Renewals - Books, journals, and media may be renewed as long as there are no “Holds/Recalls” on the materials, or the maximum number of renewals has been reached. These items may be renewed online, at the circulation desk, or by contacting us.
Holds and Recalls - Holds may be placed on items that are currently checked out to another patron. This may be done online or at the Circulation Desk. If an item “on hold” becomes overdue, a “recall” notice will be sent to the delinquent patron.
Long-Term Loan Policy - When a faculty member needs a book for an extended period of time, for a course or for research, a Long-Term Loan request should be initiated. Please contact the LRC for more information on the purchasing process. The faculty member is responsible for long-term loan materials and must return them to the library when the course or research has been completed. When a faculty member’s contract is completed/terminated, all library materials, including long-term loans, must be returned to the library. The cost of the long-term loan materials is charged to the faculty member’s department.
Damaged Lost Materials - Damaged or lost LRC materials should be reported promptly. Replacement charges are assessed at the current list price of the library preferred edition, as determined by the LRC, plus a $10.00/item processing fee. Upon payment, lost items will be considered the property of the borrower.
Literature Search and Citation Service - Logan Librarians will perform a literature search on your subject of interest, or provide you with a requested amount of articles on your topic. Please contact Sheryl.Walters@logan.edu, for a literature search or other reference services/instruction you require.
