The Prescott College Library staff
and librarians serve off-campus students and faculty with a full range of university
library services, including user
instruction, borrowing privileges, and research assistance. All new students
attend an on-campus orientation to the library's services. This handout
serves as an overview of the orientation session.
REFERENCE SERVICE IS AVAILABLE TO PRESCOTT COLLEGE STUDENTS AND FACULTY
ONLY
Access the library in the following ways (when using the toll-free
number, use the 4-digit extension of a particular department):
Services that you can expect from the Librarians include instruction on
the use of various research tools such as online catalogs, indexes, and databases;
reference assistance with searches; loan of books; and interlibrary loan
journal articles.
Call or e-mail Rich Lewis,
our Reference Librarian, for help with research, or for information
on using Internet resources (extension 1307). Call or e-mail
Norma Mazur or Tom Brodersen to renew your books, or check
on your library record (extension 1300). Call or e-mail Kaia
Lael for Interlibrary Loan
requests (extension 1304).
Of course, off-campus students can visit the library in the
Crossroads Center in person. If you are visiting from out
of town for a Liberal Arts Seminar or a graduate Colloquium,
you may wish to set up an individual appointment with one
of the Librarians in advance.

Books may be renewed twice as long as no one has
placed a hold
on them. To renew a book, go to the Library Catalog and click the gray "My Account" tab at the top. You will need to enter your 14 digit barcode. Then click "Items Out," and renew the books you want. If you have problems with this, please email Rich Lewis. You may also renew books by calling (928) 350-1300 or e-mail circdesk. Overdue
library materials are subject to overdue fines. There is a five day
grace period, which is NOT an extension of the loan period! Books returned
after
the expiration of the grace period are fined from the actual due date
at a rate of $.25 per day per item. If books are not returned after a reasonable
period of time, students are billed for the cost of the books plus
a processing
fee. PLEASE return/renew books in a timely manner. All fines or charges
must be paid in full by the end of the enrollment period in which they are
assessed.
Any unpaid balance will be forwarded to the Business Office for collection.
Borrowers are responsible for knowing the due date of materials checked
out to them.
