Borrowing Guidelines
CECH Library materials may be checked out by current UC students, faculty, staff, and UC Alumni Association members. A current Bearcat Card or other valid picture ID such as a driver's license is required to check out materials. Other users may also borrow; see the Non-UC Patrons section of our Borrow Materials page for complete details.
Until further notice, most library materials checked out since mid-January 2021 have due dates of August 31, 2021. Please consult the UC Libraries Click & Collect web page for the most up-to-date borrowing information in relation to COVID-19.
