Equipment

We are continuing to offer a very limited pool of equipment for circulation during the Spring 2021. More information can be found on our Equipment Page. To book equipment online, fill out the Equipment Booking form.

For a list of available equipment, please see MIDCAT.

Lockers and Carrels

Lockers are available to all students, faculty, and staff. The keys can be checked out for a semester at a time.

Thesis carrel keys are not available for Spring 2021. A limited number of carrels can still be used for in-library study space on a first come, first served basis.

See Library lockers and study carrel guidelines.

Renewing Items

Most material borrowed from the library can be renewed, often multiple times. To renew an item, login to your My MIDCAT account. Please note that renewing only works if done before an item is overdue.

Returns

Please use the book drops for returns (except for equipment); do not return books to the circulation desk, if at all possible.
