- Borrowing and Circulation

The library circulation policies are designed to permit prompt and equitable access to library materials. The staff at circulation service desks are focused on meeting the research needs of the library's readers.

Circulation privileges are automatically accorded to those holding valid Yale photo identification cards with a current validation sticker. A library photo ID must be presented on request in order to use the Library's facilities and collections, except in public areas or at the Government Documents Center.

Library privileges may also be granted to researchers not affiliated with University of Cape Coast. All non-UCC researchers who wish to use the library collections must register in person at the Privileges Office Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. - 4:45 p.m. On Saturdays, assistance with privileges is offered at the Library Circulation Desk from 10:00 a.m. - 4:45 p.m. Library privileges are personal and may not be transferred to others.

Loan periods and policies vary among libraries and types of materials, so it is important to check due dates and times marked on materials. The staff at the circulation desk in each Yale library can explain specific borrowing guidelines and fine policies or you can visit their Web pages to learn more.
