If you do not have or have lost your student ID, we will only accept a driver’s license or state photo ID for checking out materials.

Books can be renewed twice if there are no holds on them. Reserve materials can only be used within the 图书馆. Magazines and videos cannot be renewed - they need to be back in circulation for 24 hours before they can be checked out again.
