10As stated in the Student Use Agreement, the borrowing student is responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged items checked out to their library account. However, reported theft/loss of property will be handled on a caseby-case basis dependent on the student%u2019s individual circumstances. Theft/loss charges may be removed for students that have experienced documented dire/unusual events.If a student is charged for unreturned items and the balance is paid with Emergency Relief funds, the charges will not be removed from their account, even if the items are returned within the stated return period. The student is not eligible to receive a refund for a balance paid off with Emergency Relief funds.

The services assure that students will have access to materials that may be in high demand due to the nature of a particular assignment. Students have access to the materials during the hours the Libraries are open.Reserve services are governed by the following rules and guidelines:Instructors complete the Reserve request form (Appendix A) for each semester and for each course reserve requested. Requests are processed in one or two days (except the first two weeks of each semester when more time may be needed).In compliance with copyright law (Title 17 U.S. Code) all materials must be in accordance with %u201cfair use%u201d agreements. Faculty members assume responsibility for compliance. The Library staff will not place materials on reserve that are obviously out of compliance.

Videotapes purchased or rented by faculty do not generally come with public performance rights; requests to place such materials on Reserve will be reviewed by a Library professional and the instructor. Materials that have been taped and do not have permission or a license from the copyright holder will not be placed on Reserve.The Library professional staff will examine Reserve requests which fall outside of any previously mentioned category.Placing personal items on Reserve is at the owner%u2019s risk. The Library is not responsible for lost or damaged items.According to 17 U.S.C. Section 107 [4], materials cannot be placed on reserve repeatedly because it has a detrimental impact on the market for the copyrighted material. After one semester, personal copyrighted books, as well as articles, CDs, videos, and cassettes must be removed from reserve, and they cannot be placed back on reserve for the following semester. Copyrighted material may be placed on reserve for more than one semester if the faculty member receives permission from the
