Heterick for Faculty and Staff

Your faculty/staff ID serves as your library card. IDs are non-transferrable; only you can check out items using your card. You are welcome to check out items for others (e.g. a picture book for your child), but all items you check out on your account are ultimately your responsibility.

If you have family members who would like to use the library on their own, they may apply for a community user card at the Information Desk on the first floor.

Loan lengths are as follows:

• Heterick Books: semester
• OhioLINK Books: 42 days
• DVDs and VHSs: 7 days
• Heterick CDs: 14 days
• OhioLINK CDs: 7 days
• Reference Books: 1 day

You can renew items in person, over the phone, and online. If another patron has placed a hold on an item, you will not be able to renew it.

• In-person: Come to the Information Desk on the first floor of the library. You do not need to bring the items with you.
• Phone: Call the Information Desk at ext. 2181.
• Online: Renew through your library account online.

Fine rates are as follows:

• Heterick Item Overdue: no charge
• Heterick Item Lost/Damaged: cost of item + $10 processing fee
• OhioLINK Item Overdue: no charge
• OhioLINK Item Lost/Damaged: $75 replacement charge (waived if the book is ultimately returned) + $50 processing fee

You can pay fines in cash or by check at the Information Desk.
