Members of the Woodbury University community have full borrowing privileges at the Woodbury University Library. These privileges are free to Woodbury University faculty, staff and currently enrolled students.
To borrow items from the Woodbury University Library, present the item(s) and your library card at the Circulation Desk. Your Woodbury University ID serves as your library card. In order to protect you and our materials, no other form of ID will be accepted.
Loan periods can be determined by various factors. Please see the following chart for the most common loan periods.
You may renew items online using "My Account" through the library’s online catalog or in person at the circulation desk. You may renew materials 2 times unless a hold has been placed on the item you are trying to renew.
In order to renew materials checked out from the library using the library catalog:
1. click “My Account”
2. click “Renew My Materials”
3. enter the number on your Woodbury University ID and click “List Charged Items”
4. select the items you would like renewed and click, “Renew Selected Items”
5. “Logout” when you are finished
To insure fair access to course reserve materials, reserve materials may not be renewed.
The majority of books in the Woodbury University Library collection may be borrowed for use outside the library, however some are restricted to on-site use only such as periodicals, reference books and special collections.
Exceptions may be made (e.g., for classroom use). Please speak to a librarian about getting a special loan approved.
Patrons are responsible for returning library materials on time and in good condition. As a courtesy, the library will attempt to send at least 3 notices to remind you of materials that are overdue.
Fines for most items:.25/day, $10 Maximum per item
Exceptions
Course Reserve materials: .25/hour, $25 Maximum per item
DVDs & Videos: .25/day, $10 Maximum per item
Interlibrary Loan materials: $1.00/day, $25 Maximum per item
Patrons who have very long overdue items will be billed for the current replacement cost of the item, a $50.00 processing fee and the overdue fines that may have accrued. As a courtesy, the library will send three overdue notices before this occurs.
If the item is found and returned within one year, the item’s replacement cost will be refunded. The processing fee and overdue fines are not refundable.
Please speak with a Circulation Supervisor if you feel that a fine has been unjustly assessed.
Please speak with a Circulation Supervisor if you cannot locate library materials that have an available status in our library catalog. Staff will search for the item on your behalf and notify you about the results of our search. If we find the item, it will be placed on hold for you at the Circulation Desk.
