Employee Borrowing Policies
BORROWING PRIVILEGES
All Colby-Sawyer College faculty, staff and their families may borrow library materials without charge. All family members must check out items under the employee's account. Family members do not need the employee's college ID to check out material; a picture ID of the family member would be sufficient.
REGISTRATION
A Colby-Sawyer College employee must complete a registration form at the Access Services desk and show their college ID. All family members authorized to check out items must be listed on the application.
BORROWING POLICIES
Faculty, staff and family members may check out books for personal use for a three-week loan period. Faculty and teaching staff may check out items for the duration of the current semester so that they can use those materials in teaching and research for their courses. All teaching and research materials should be returned to the library before the holiday and summer breaks.
At the end of the loan period, Colby-Sawyer College employees are sent two overdue notices that are intended as reminders to assist them in keeping track of library materials checked out in their name. We ask that you call ahead of time to renew items. An intent to bill notice will be sent if the material is still out after the two overdue notices have been sent.
RECALL OF MATERIALS
Any item checked out to an employee may be recalled for another patron after the item has been out for nine days. Employees have five days from the date of the recall notice to return the item.
INTER-LIBRARY LOAN
Materials (books and periodical articles) that are not part of the Colby-Sawyer College library collection may be obtained from other libraries. Family members of faculty and staff are not eligible and should submit ILL requests through their town library. To request these materials, ILL requests may be made electronically by accessing the Library homepage: ILL FORMS
VIDEO AND OVERHEAD VIEWING AREAS
The library has two video viewing areas located on Level 1 and Level 5. Each of these areas accommodates up to four people. The library training room on Level 5 is available for viewing slides and for use of the overhead projector. Please call the Access Services desk to reserve the training room and any equipment that you intend to use.
