Location:
The Circulation Desk is located on the first floor. Those who wish to borrow materials from the Library must first report to this Desk to sign a registration form. By singing the registration form, the borrower agrees to observe the by-laws, policies and legations of the University Main Library. Before completing a registration form, the borrower must present a valid University Identification Card for bar coding.
The University ID Card also serves as the Library borrowing Card, and the borrower must present it each time he/she borrows materials from the Library, or when requested by the Library staff.
Books are checked out at the first floor Circulation Desk. Audio/Visualmaterials are located and checked out at the ground floor in block F, near the mosque. The borrower must present the ID Card each time she/he wishes to borrow. If materials are taken out of the Library without being properly checked out, a security alarm will sound as the borrower pass through the exit gate.
There will be no borrowing transactions during the late 30 minutes before closing the Library.

Unless a hold has been placed on a circulated item by another patron, borrower may renew the loan period by presenting the item to the concerned Circulation Desk.
Borrower are responsible for any loss, damage or mutilation of materials they borrow or use in the Library.
The due date is stamped on the date due slip, and books must be returned to the same desk from which they were borrowed, because the Library maintains two desks, male and female, separately.
Materials placed on reserve by Faculty members are withdrawn from the stacks and are placed behind the Circulation Desk. Such materials may be checked out overnight, one hour before closing time and must be returned next day within one hour of the Library opening time.
