Short course borrowing

Short course borrower membership is designed to enable students who are involved in a short-term course of study at the University of Adelaide to borrow books from the University of Adelaide Library.

Who may join?

Short course membership is available to students who are associated with a course run by a Department of the University of Adelaide.
Prior arrangements with the Library's Services Section must be made by the Department running the short course. In most cases this will involve sending us a list of the students who will be entitled to join, before the course commences.
Individual students on a short course must register at Barr Smith Library's Service Enquiries on Level 3.

Cost

A membership fee of $33.00 enables a short course member to borrow books for a three-month period. An additional fee of $33.00 will renew your membership for a further three months.

Loan conditions

          Short course borrowers may have on loan up to 10 items at a time from  the Barr Smith Library.

Books from the Main collection may be borrowed for 4 weeks.

An item on loan to you may be recalled if it is urgently required by another user. The loan period will be reduced to 7 days and you will be notified of the new due date by email.

Restrictions

As well as course work items, there are other categories of material that are not available for loan. They include material from the Reference collection, journals and newspapers.

Short course borrowers are not entitled to use student computers.

Off-campus access to electronic resources is not possible.
