Interlibrary Media Borrowing for Faculty
In
order to support the quality of teaching in the
Washington Research Library Consortium (WRLC),
several member universities participate in a media
resource-sharing program, unofficially referred
to as Mediashare. If a faculty member at one of
the participating universities is interested in
using materials from one of the other libraries,
the following policies apply:
- All materials will be used for educational, class-related
purposes only. Public performance is not permitted.
All copyright restrictions must be observed.
- As with the AU Library's media collection, the
patron is financially liable for replacing materials
lost or damaged during the loan period.
- As with the AU Library's media collection, fines
accrue for overdue items ($1.20 per day).
- The lending university reserves the right to prohibit
the loan of certain materials for legitimate reasons,
such as heavy use by the home institution, licensing
restrictions, or unusual fragility of the materials.
- Patron loan periods for consortium materials are
routinely one day. The maximum length of a patron
loan period is five days.
- Faculty members must request consortium loans
at least two weeks prior to the earliest scheduled
use date.
- Faculty members may request a given title one
time per semester. An exception may be considered
for previewing purposes.
- Media Services will honor up to ten requests for
individual titles per faculty member per semester.
