The University of Iowa Libraries is pleased to announce a policy change that allows all faculty working at any higher ed institution in the state of Iowa to borrow books for one year.
By showing a current Faculty ID card from their university or college at the service desk at the Main Library, Hardin Library for the Health Sciences, or a branch library, faculty will be issued a borrower’s permit that will allow them to check out books for one year. Previously, the loan period was for 4 weeks.
Applying for this borrower’s permit can be done online, a few days before your visit to Iowa City (http://www.lib.uiowa.edu/forms/permit/). The U of Iowa Libraries hope this change in service will allow better use of their collection across the state.
