Faculty Services |
|
The University Libraries offer to all faculty members at AUB customized services to suit their teaching and research needs. These services are:
General Services
- Renew my Borrowed Books - My Library Account
You may renew your borrowed books online, by logging in to My Library Account in the Library Catalog.
- Borrowing Privileges
You may borrow up to 100 items for a period of one year; the items may be renewed online for an additional semester only. Check here for more details.
- Recall Policy
If requested by another borrower, the University Libraries reserve the right to recall borrowed books after at least two weeks of use. When a library material is recalled, a recall notice will automatically be sent to the borrower’s AUB email informing him/her that the material is needed by another borrower and asking him/her to return it within one week. Failure to return a recalled item within the seven days period will incur a fine of $1.00 per day (faculty exempted), and the patron will be blocked from borrowing until the item is returned. When the borrowed item is returned to the library, the requesting user is notified by email and the item is put on hold for him for no longer that 72 hours.

You may use the Borrowing Authorization Form (Faculty only) to permit your student/graduate assistant to borrow library items on your behalf. Once you submit the form, you will be personally responsible for renewing or returning all borrowed items.
