  Check Out Policies


A valid Macalester ID is required for all Check Outs.

Reserve Materials:

Macalester Faculty:

All media materials being used in Macalester courses should be placed on reserve in Media Services.

Reserve materials will remain on reserve until the end of the semester.

Professors wishing to place materials on reserve should use the Media Reserve Form.

If a show date is given, the item will also be booked for the professor at that time so no one is able to check it out during the time it is needed.

The faculty member(s) that have placed materials on reserve are asked to check out the materials during the time period they will be used for class use or preparation only.   (See Denise or Brian if this is longer than the regular 4 hour reserve check out period).  The rest of the time the materials should remain in Media Services on reserve so they are accessible to the students of the class and other patrons who may have need of the same material.

Macalester Students:


Macalester students may check out reserved media items for four hours only, no exceptions.  If an item is checked out shortly before we close, it will be due when we open the following business day.  There is an overdue charge of $1 per hour.



Regular Collection Materials:

Macalester Faculty and Staff:

Media Materials can be checked out by faculty and staff for a one week loan  period.  If items are needed longer, please contact Denise or Brian.

Macalester Students:


Students may check out items from the regular collection for 24 hours. There is an overdue charge of $0.50 per hour for any time beyond the 24 hours.
