Library Resources for Students

An overview of library resources and services available in support of online research.

Book Pull and Checkout Requests

Requests are now available through Librarysearch. Search results for on-campus materials allow logged-in users to request books, scores, and DVDs for pickup. Requested materials are held for you on the shelves on the 1st floor of the Library to the left of the new books display.  

  • Requests normally take 24 hours to be filled.
  • Materials are available for pickup after receiving a confirmation email from library staff.
  • Items are available for pickup for 10 days.
