Media Checkout

All media checkouts in Lib 85

Our checkout system relies on users return media on time.

Faculty Use:
Reservations: 415-338-1494. You may also drop off a list of media and the dates you need it to our office.

We will check out anything in our collection to anyone currently teaching with an SFSU FACULTY or ADMINISTRATION ID CARD.
You must sign a financial responsibility form stating that you are accepting full financial responsibility for damage or loss to any media you check out.

Please note: Many of our titles are out of print or have expensive replacement costs. Faculty are responsible for replacing lost media.

Limits: 7 titles may be checked out for one week. The day before it is due, you may call us to renew for one week. If someone has made a reservation in the meantime, we MUST recall the media, no exceptions. We only have one copy of each program and rely on the faculty to return it on time.

Returns: We do not have a night drop and ask that you wait at our returns counter for us to process your return. To speed this process give us your last name and return date. We need to verify that the media is in good condition and in the correct case.
