    Effective immediately, Carnegie Mellon users will be able to borrow
items
from most* University of Pittsburgh libraries on a 4-week loan and be
eligible for one 4-week renewal per item. This is a 100% improvement
over previous borrowing policies (2-week loan, 2-week renewal).

    You must have a "Special Borrower" library card in order to borrow
items, and Carnegie Mellon users who already have Special Borrower cards
will have to obtain NEW cards in order to have the current 4-week
privileges. 

    To obtain a Special Borrower card, go to the Hillman Library lending
desk. Faculty and staff should show their Carnegie Mellon ID card;
students should show their Carnegie Mellon ID and proof of current
registration (the PAT bus sticker can serve this function).

    * Some University of Pittsburgh libraries do not participate in the
Oakland Library Consortium: Fine Arts, Law, Nursing, Western Psych, and
branch libraries in Bradford, Greensburg, Johnstown, and Titusville.
Carnegie Mellon users _cannot_ borrow directly (onsite) from these 
libraries. If you need to borrow items from nonparticipating libraries,
contact interlibrary loan.  

    For many years, the Oakland Library Consortium (OLC) has fostered
cooperation and partnership among Carnegie Mellon libraries, University
of Pittsburgh libraries and The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh for the
benefit of the entire academic community. Besides individual borrowing,
courier service among the libraries facilitates interlibrary loan.
