To check out an item from the physical collection, you have two options.

  1.  Come to the library, go down to the stacks to find the book or books you'd like to check out, then bring it back upstairs to the Checkout Desk to check it out.
  2. Place a hold on the item, then a library staffer will retrieve it from the stacks and we'll email you when it's ready to pick up from the 1st floor Checkout Desk or via contactless pickup from a locker in our Chamberlain Lobby.

For instructions on how you can place a hold on an item, follow this link:

We're not offering to mail items anymore, but if a patron requests it we may be able to on a case-by-case basis.
