Borrowing
privileges and responsibilities
Current Chaffey College students, staff and faculty are eligible to
check out materials at the library. Your Chaffey College ID card also
is your library card and you will need to present your student ID to
check out materials. Faculty and staff must present a photo ID in order
to check out materials.
If you do not
have your ID or if there is a block on your account, Circulation can
hold most materials for a short period in your name. The limit on the
number of materials that you can have checked out is thirty items. You
are responsible for any materials checked out on your account and for
returning them on time. If you lose your ID card or if your contact
information changes, you are responsible for notifying Circulation.
Renewals
In some cases, you can renew books checked out to you online from the
Library Catalog or you can bring the books to the Circulation Desk to
renew them. Books cannot be renewed over the phone. Overdue
materials cannot be renewed; renewals must be before the due date. There is no limit on renewals, but all materials
must be returned by the end of the semester. Books with holds placed
on them cannot be renewed.
Holds
Holds may be placed on certain materials that are checked out. You will
need the call number of the item; inquire at Circulation to place a
hold.

Reserve Materials
Materials on reserve for a class are kept behind the desk at Circulation.
You will need to have the call number of the material for the staff
to find it (it will usually begin with the letters RES). If you do not
know the call number for your item, you can look it up in the Library
Catalog.
If you do not
know the title of the item that you need, the Chaffey
Bookstore has a search engine on its site (click on Textbooks
on the top of the Bookstore homepage to access), where you can search
for the titles of the required and optional textbooks for a course.
Electronic
Reserves (eRes)
Materials on Electronic Reserve(eRes)
are available via AGent
on the Chaffey Library Website.
If you are having difficulties
accessing eRes or finding the materials that you need on eRes, please
contact the Reference Desk at (909)652-6808 or at library@chaffey.edu.
