LIBRARY SERVICES

Services

The UW-Marinette library houses a collection of over 30,000 books, periodicals, records, CDs, tapes, films, videos and documents and has computers with Internet access available for you to search online catalogs of Wisconsin libraries and beyond. Electronic databases are also available. The circulation system provides easy check-out to students through the use of their identification cards. Interlibrary loan from other UW- Colleges, UW- System, and other libraries vastly expands students’research possibilities. Additional lab computers for word processing, e-mail, additional internet searching, and other programs are available.

Reserve Collection

This collection, located behind the Circulation Desk, includes books, articles, and/or audio and video tapes for short-term reading or viewing as assigned by faculty. Since many students need to access a limited number of copies or materials, most checkout periods are for 2 hours. Overdue fines for reserve materials are $.25 per hour.

Circulation

The circulation period for books, CDs, records, videos, periodicals and pamphlets is three weeks. Fines for overdue materials are assessed at $.10 per day per item. Renewals are generally permitted and encouraged as necessary.

Interlibrary Loan

Materials not held by the UW-Marinette library may be borrowed from other libraries through interloan. Requests for items may be made at the Circulation Desk or electronically. Materials usually arrive within one week, and circulate for the same length of time as do local materials. Interlibrary loans are free of charge to enrolled students.
