How do I give the library my address?
On the Mail to Address request form, there is a place to verify the address you would like your items shipped to. Be sure to update this information by clicking Edit this Information.
How do I return materials to the library?
Feel free to return your borrowed materials to the library when you are back on campus. Items can be returned to library book drops located at various library locations.
