Dear Faculty,
I want to inform you of a service which is now available to
Life faculty members. As a member of the Statewide California Electronic
Library Consortium (SCELC), we are eligible to participate in the Reciprocal
Faculty Borrowing program. There are currently 36 institutions participating in
this program, and Life has recently joined the group. What does this mean for
you? If, during your research, you find a book or article, which is located at
one of the participating institutions, you now have the ability to gain access
to the item. Of course, each institution has its own set of lending policies,
which may restrict access, but for the most part, you now have an avenue to
access a broader array of scholarly materials.
The borrowing program is intended for faculty members who
can visit the lending library to acquire the materials. For faculty members who
are unable to visit the lending library, it may be possible to make other
arrangements, but this is far from certain and subject to the different library
lending policies. The first step in the process is to identify a lending
library with the needed resource, then complete the Authorization for
Reciprocal Faculty Borrowing Privileges form attached to this email. Next,
contact me and we will set up a time to have the form signed. Finally, present
the form to the lending library and they we provide you with a library card.
