Policy

AJCU Libraries agree to extend direct, reciprocal, in-person borrowing privileges to AJCU faculty from member colleges and universities. Each home library will establish eligibility for direct borrowing privileges. The lending library determines specific privileges; including the maximum number of checkouts and the specific ending date for borrowing privileges. Borrowers under this program are subject to the regulations and loan periods established by the lending library.

Each institution agrees:

• to provide addresses and other necessary information on direct borrowers of the lending library to allow for proper enforcement of the lending regulations.
• to be responsible for reimbursing the lending libraries for items determined to be lost.
• to cumulate a final annual notification of any outstanding obligations for the preceding calendar year by March 1. Cumulated obligations will be declared permanent on June 1.

These privileges will

• be valid no later than the expiration date indicated on the AJCU Direct Borrowers Form
• provide direct borrowing privileges only for AJCU faculty
• apply only to the following libraries at each institution: AJCU Member Institutions
