Our Mission
The Circulation Desk is found near the exit doors on the second (main) floor of the Leroy V. Good Library. All materials must be checked out through the Circulation Desk via the library's automated circulation system. The Circulation staff checks materials out and in, manages the reserve collection, processes trace and hold requests, receives payment for lost library materials, issues temporary library cards to special populations, answers questions about fines and charges, stores lost and found, and places book transfers to and from the Damon City Campus. The desk staff is trained to answer directional questions and manage Circulation Services, but will refer all other research information requests to the Information/Reference Desk. Besides being responsible for all activities at the Circulation Desk, the Circulation staff is responsible for maintaining the book stacks on the 3rd and 4th floors. To keep materials in their proper places, Circulation student assistants are assigned sections of the book stacks where they are trained to shelve, straighten, and read the shelves for correct order. If you are having trouble finding an item, stop at the Circulation Desk where an assistant would be happy to help you.
