CIRCULATION POLICY FOR U.C. USERS

 

Some MIL materials are circulated to UC users who present an academic library card or an Access card with perm number for current academic quarter, or to employees of UC who present a library card. With the exception of book-format materials in MIL Public Area stacks, MIL’s circulating materials are to be checked out before 4:50pm.

 

MAPS:

Maps not stamped REFERENCE or DO NOT CIRCULATE circulate to faculty, graduate students and staff of UCSB for a period of 1 to 3 days. 

Maps may be checked out to undergraduates for presentations or for options outlined in the policy on PHOTOCOPY OPTIONS FOR U.C. USERS.  If checked out for presentation use, the loan period is limited to time needed for the presentation; this is usually a few hours, not to exceed one day unless presentation is off campus or after MIL hours of operation.  MIL will be glad to provide binder clips to hang the maps.

A circulation slip is filled out, the user’s library or access card is copied with the form, and the photocopy is kept in MIL’s files; as the user leaves the library, the user will give the tube to a Circulation staff person, who will pass the tube around the exit.

Please read carefully the CONDITIONS FOR USE OF MIL MATERIALS.  These conditions are posted on the outside of the circulation map tubes.  

 

IMAGERY:

Imagery does not circulate.  There are several different options for reproduction of non-copyrighted frames; REPRODUCTION OPTIONS FOR  U.C. USERS: http://www.sdc.ucsb.edu/services/repro_options_UC.htm

 

ATLASES AND REFERENCE BOOKS:

MIL Public Area and MIL Public Area Oversize atlases and reference books circulate for regular loan period through main Circulation desk.  Materials are checked out and returned as are other library books.

All other book materials are circulated by manual checkout from MIL and then checked out again at the main circulation desk. 

MIL Map, MIL Map Oversize, MIL Imagery and MIL Digital books without a red adhesive dot on the spine circulate for 7 days and may be renewed. Books with a red dot on spine must receive permission of the assistant head of the department for circulation.

 

DIGITAL DATA:

CDs/DVDs circulate for a limited loan period of 7 days; they are checked out manually in MIL only, not at the main circulation desk, and are returned to MIL.

Software does not circulate. Software manuals may in some cases circulate for the duration of periods MIL are closed; these may be checked out between 4:30 and 4:50pm on days MIL is open, to be returned to MIL the next day MIL is open between 9 and 10am.  During the academic quarter circulation period is limited to weekends only; during break periods overnight checkouts are allowed.
