Circulation

 

The circulation staff is always ready to help users find their way in the collection and with the computers. The circulation desk handles issue and return of books, journals, materials put on reserve, and building-use (non-circulating) materials; in addition to providing reference services.

Check the general circulation details.

 

 

 

Stacks and Reading Area

 

The stacks are open for users; books are classed by the Dewey Classification system and are always kept in order. New books are displayed separately until a new batch is received. Current journals are placed alphabetically, by departments, with back issues bound and placed alphabetically in a separate section with their indexes that serve as a key to their use. Some indexes are available online. Online additions or substitutions as well as all our holdings are listed under the different categories in the University Libraries homepage.

The reading area at the Engineering & Architecture Library has seating for sixty-four students as a QUIET study area.

 

 

Computers

 

There is a number of computers, network and card-operated printers, and a scanner. Photocopy service is available in the library, with a magnetic card dispenser next to them. There is also one silent typewriter for users.
