Circulating items
found in the
Gill Library Catalog
are held at the following
Gill Library locations:
Brooklyn, Co-op City, JOC, New
Rochelle, Rosa Parks and may be
borrowed by patrons who hold a
valid CNR ID card
as long as their CNR ID card
barcode number and a
current expiration date
are included in Millennium, the
integrated library system used
by Gill Library.
Circulating items
can be sent between these
locations so that the patron can
pick them up at the most
convenient location.
If
by searching the
Gill Library Catalog
you locate a record for a
circulating item
that is not held at your CNR
Campus Library, you may submit
an online request, and it will
be delivered to the CNR Campus
Library specified in your
request for you to pick up. For
example, you may submit an
online request for the book,
Cats of Any Color: Jazz Black
and White,
which is only at the JOC Campus
Library, to be sent to the Rosa
Parks Campus Library or any
other CNR Campus Library where
you wish to check-out the book.
To submit an ICL
Request, follow these steps:
-
Search the
Gill Library Catalog
by Title or Author or
Keyword or Subject, etc.
-
Locate the
catalog record for the item
you wish to request.
Place
Request
-
Click the
Request button in the
catalog record or the Place
Request link next
to the desired item in the
catalog result list.
-
On the
My Library Record Login
screen, enter your name and
only the numbers (not the
letters) of the barcode on
your valid CNR ID card.
Click the Submit button.
-
On the (Hold) Request
Verification screen, select
your CNR Campus Library from
the “Choose
a Pickup Location”
drop-down menu.
-
Select the appropriate Month
Day Year to indicate the
“Cancel
if not filled by” date
of your choosing. Click the
Submit button.
-
You will be
notified when the item is
ready to be picked up and
checked-out at the Location
indicated on the request.
-
If there is
no Request button or link
for the desired item, then
the item cannot be
requested. The following
are reasons that an item may
not be requestable:
-
The item is already
checked-out, in which
case you may request the
item by submitting an
online interlibrary loan
request form by clicking
the
ILLiad
link on the Gill Library
home page.
-
The item is
non-circulating.
Patrons whose requests are not
filled within a few days of
their request should notify
their CNR Campus Library.
Patrons who need the items
sooner than a few days have the
option of visiting any CNR
Campus Library to check out
circulating items,
but they should contact the
Library to request that a
Hold
be placed on the item and should
check the hours of the
Gill Library locations.
Intercampus Loan
service is temporarily suspended
when the Branch Campus Libraries
are closed for extended periods,
for example, during the month of
August.
Explanation of
Terms:
Your
Home
Library is the library
located at or near the CNR
campus where you attend classes.
Intercampus Loan
(ICL) allows you to check-out a
circulating item (e.g., book,
video, DVD, audiocassette) at
one CNR Campus Library (e.g.,
your
Home Library)
even though the item belongs at
another CNR Campus Library. You
don’t have to travel to the
location of the item; the item
travels to your location but can
take a few days to arrive.
Circulating items
may be checked-out and removed
from Gill Library.
A
valid CNR ID card
indicates a valid through date
that has not expired or a
validation sticker for the
current or upcoming semester.
Such cards and stickers are
obtained from the Security
Office.
A
current expiration date,
that is an expiration date that
has not passed, should be in
Millennium, the integrated
library system used by Gill
Library, for patrons who are
registered for or teaching
during the current or upcoming
semester. Patrons affiliated
with CNR obtain a CNR ID card or
a validation sticker from the
Security Office.
Non-circulating
items are, for example, in the
Reference, Reserve, and Archive
and Special Collections. These
items can be used inside Gill
Library only.
By requesting a
Hold
on an item, you are letting the
Library know that you want to
check-out the item. When the
Library receives a Hold request,
the item is removed from the
collection and placed on a Hold
Shelf so that it is available
for you to check-out. Items are
kept on the Hold Shelf for one
week before being returned to
the collection.
On
the (Hold) Request Verification
screen, using the
Choose a Pickup Location
drop-down menu, select the CNR
Campus Library (e.g., your
Home Library)
where you wish to pick up the
requested item.
Using the Month
Day Year drop-down menu, enter a
Cancel if not filled by date
to let Gill Library know the
date to cancel your request if
it cannot be filled. For
example, if your research paper
is due on April 20, 2009, you
might choose April 17, 2009 as
the cancel if not filled by
date. One possible reason for
Gill Library not filling a
request is that the item cannot
be found in the collection.
