To check out library materials, bring them with your JBU ID card to the circulation desk. Most items can be renewed up to 2 times as long as no one else has placed a hold.

Books that are needed by many students for the same assignments are held at the Reserve Desk and available for in-library use only for up to three hours at a time. Most required textbooks for non-elective core classes are available on reserve, as well as books identified by your instructors as required readings or highly useful resources.
In order to provide fair access to all students who may need a book, Reserve materials are subject to hourly overdue fines if not turned in on time. Please be sure to hand your books back in within three hours to avoid changes.
