In order to process your orders quickly, accurately, and efficiently, we ask that faculty and staff members remember the following procedures when placing orders for library material.
1. Requests for library material may be made the following ways:
i. Complete the appropriate Order Request Form.
ii. Circle the items requested in a catalog and send it to the library.
iii. Complete the Online Order Form.
iv. E-mail Jan Christy with your requests
2. Each item requested should be given a priority rank. Rank your selections as follows:
(1) Very Important (must be purchased)
(2) Important (should be purchased)
(3) Helpful (may be purchased if funds are available)
3. To ensure accuracy, please include as much information as possible about the title being ordered, including full author, title, publisher, ISBN, edition, paperback vs. hardback, and list price (not sales price).
4. For audio-visual materials, please include distributor information. We are not always able to locate a source for all materials, so this is a great time and money saver.
5. Normal orders must be in at least 12 weeks before they are needed. Materials may take several months to be sent from a library vendor. Anything needed in a more timely fashion needs to be marked as "Rush" and sent directly to Jan Christy.
6. Ordering deadline for each fiscal year is April 1. Any requests received after that date will be held and ordered the next fiscal year.
