Alumni
Alumni Association members may enrol to borrow items from the print collections on production of their Student ID number and a form of photoID, without having to apply to the University Librarian.
The Library offers members of the Alumni Association a discount off the normal External Library Membership fee.
Fee Structure for Alumni:
- up to 3 months - $ 30
- up to 6 months - $ 60
- up to 12 months - $100
Borrowing
If you are resident within the local telephone calling area or check email on a daily basis, and if you agree to return material immediately if required, then you can borrow print items from the Library.
Alumni not resident locally can borrow items when coming to Lincoln in person, and may request copies of a maximum of five serial articles from the Library's collection per year free of charge. The Library does not offer a postal borrowing service to distance alumni or visitors.
Membership is granted at an undergraduate level (undergraduate borrowing privileges of two week loan for books and theses, three day loan for multimedia and one day loan for serials).
Under current licences, your membership will not allow remote access to most of the Library's fulltext and bibliographic electronic databases. Walk-in access to these databases is available at the Library to any Library user, and files can be saved to your pen-drive or emailed.
Membership is granted to an individual, rather than a company. Although the individual may be using the collection for business reasons, the card holder is the only person who will be permitted to borrow using the card.
In some circumstances Library staff may be available to meet one-off information requests on payment of the relevant fees.
Visitors
All visitors can use the Library for reading and reference purposes. Visitor photocopying cards can be purchased for $5, and copying credit added for whatever value is required.
If you would like to be able to borrow items from the print collections, a written application must be made to the University Librarian. This application would normally include reasons why interloan from your local library would not be sufficient for your needs.
Fee Structure for External Library Membership:
- up to 3 months - $ 50
- up to 6 months - $ 90
- up to 12 months - $150
