| Library customers can borrow books, and purchase
journal articles, conference proceedings, patents, and
other materials not in the Library's collection.
Material not owned by the Library will be requested through interlibrary
loan or acquired through a third-party document service. Only the
costs incurred by the interlibrary loan (loan fee, shipping charge) or the cost of acquiring other materials through the delivery service will be passed on to the customer.
Material borrowed via Document Delivery
must be returned by hand-carry only to Building 804 (Room 8 in NM and in CA to MO51, Room 114).
Service Standard: In NM our standard
turnaround time is 7 working days. Please ask. If we can accommodate
your deadline without rearranging other commitments or calling
in extra resources, we will negotiate a different deadline with
you. There will be exceptions to our capability to deliver your
requests within the seven days, such as:
- When the request includes procuring content outside
of the Technical Library every effort will be made
to get the content within the standard. If it is
known at the time of the request that the source
of the external content cannot deliver within our
standard, you will be informed and given the opportunity
to negotiate a different deadline.
- Extensive search requests or subsequent scope change of
the original search request will require a negotiation of a
reasonable deadline.
We recognize that there will be times when you may need something
sooner than seven working days. Please ask. If we can accommodate
your deadline without rearranging other commitments or calling
in extra resources, we will negotiate a different deadline with
you.
We will acknowledge receipt of your request.
Items can be requested through the Document Delivery Service's Library
Request Form. Customers are encouraged to check the Library's Online
Catalog and electronic holdings prior to requesting material.
For assistance in locating material contact your reference
librarians.
