How to Check Out a Book at the Mercy Library / How to Return a Book

There's no one in the Library Workroom at the Mercy Library.  How do I check out a book?

The Mercy Library is set up for self-service when the Librarian is away.  

1) Locate the checkout card in the book you want to check out.  Usually in the back inside cover.

2) On the checkout card, print your

• First and last name
• Department  
• Public people and patients, please include your home address.

3) Drop the card in the black after-hours checkout box at the workroom service window (across from the copier).  

4) Note the due date.  Books are usually checked out for 3 weeks.
