Policies Governing Loan of Library Materials

Library materials may be loaned to users for in-building or out-of building use for varying periods according to policies and procedures determined by the Director of the Library upon consultation with appropriate University officials, the Library Policy Committee, and other groups of constituents. Loan of library materials is defined under this policy as transfer from the lender (the UMBC Library) to the individual borrower of control and responsibility for safekeeping of library materials (either owned by the UMBC Library, a State agency; or temporarily in the care and safekeeping of the UMBC Library from another owning institution, be it another UMS library, private or publicly supported library, federal agency, etc.).
