Law students interested in storing research materials inside the Law Library can now reserve a book truck for the semester. When you store books on your reserved book truck, library staff will leave them there (instead of shelving them or putting them in the lost and found.)
Some key points:
- Book trucks are in the Law Library’s computer lab, and must remain there at all times.
- Only books may be stored here. This can include your personal books, books from other libraries on campus, or books you have checked out from the Law Library.
- All Law Library items stored on your book truck must be checked out to you. Please do not pull materials off the shelves and leave them on your book truck without checking them out, even for a short time. Get a colored flag from the Service Counter for all Law Library materials you will be storing on your book truck, so that staff know which items should be there.
- The Law Library is not responsible for the security of anything stored on a book truck. This includes Law Library items – Law Library items lost, stolen or damaged while on a book truck are the same as Law Library items lost, stolen or damaged anywhere else. You are still responsible for overdue or replacement charges.
For more information, see the Book Truck Brochure or speak to a Law Library staff member.
Law students: did you know that you can ask us reference questions anytime, from anywhere? The Law Library recently set up an email address for students to use when they have research questions but can’t get to the reference desk:
Beginning Tuesday, September 6th, the Law Library will begin collecting overdue fines for all materials that are not returned on time. Any fine accrued on or after that date will be subject to collection; however, all Law Library fines from prior dates will be waived.
