LIBRARY SERVICES
Checking out and renewing
library materials
A current MSU ID is needed to check out
library materials.
Those not affiliated with MSU can apply for a Community Borrower
card.
Materials check out for different lengths of time
depending on the item and on whether you are a student or a staff
member. For details, see our borrower policies.
Renewals can be done
in the library or by phone (406-771-4398) or by email (library@msugf.edu).
Renewing library materials promptly keeps library records up-to-date
and keeps the system from registering a fine. Fines start accruing
the day an item becomes due.
Materials on reserve at the MSU-GF
Campus Library are listed in the library catalog.
Select the Library
Catalog link on the library home page.
Choose the Reserve Desk icon on the top
of the catalog page.
- Search by instructor, course name, or course number.
- Note the OR number of the item. Provide this number
at the circulation desk
to request the item.
- A student ID will be required to check out a reserve item.
InterLibrary Loan
No library can own all of the books, periodicals
and other materials needed by its users. However, libraries cope
with this situation by using a system of lending/borrowing known
as interlibrary loan. An understanding by our borrowers of the
interlibrary loan regulations and procedures will help us facilitate
operations and provide better service.
Interlibrary loan requests are accepted from MSU
Great Falls faculty, staff, and students.
Before making an interlibrary loan request,
please do the following:
- Read our ILL Policies
- Check the library catalog carefully
- Check our full-text databases carefully
- Check the holdings of other local libraries
- Make sure you have allowed enough time (2-3 weeks)
for us to process your request and get your item here
in time to be of use for your project
