Checking out Materials
Faculty must present their University ID cards at the circulation/reserves desk to check out materials from the library. Books are given a due date of May 31 and are renewed automatically each year. Journals may only be checked out by Divinity and Religion faculty for photocopying purposes only. With written permission and an expiration date, others may be allowed to check out materials for faculty.

Please note that books may be recalled for use by another patron after two weeks. To protect your privacy, the library does not give out the name of the patron who has checked out a book. We can, at your request, make a special effort to recall a book quickly

TRLN
The libraries of Duke University, North Carolina Central University, North Carolina State University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill participate in a cooperative library lending agreement. Faculty members, currently enrolled students, administration officials, and members of the university staffs may obtain borrowing privileges from the participating libraries. See the TRLN website for more information.

Interlibrary Loan
Interlibrary Loan (ILL) assists scholarly research by obtaining library materials unavailable in the Duke Library system. ILL locates needed materials in other libraries, borrows books and microforms and obtains photocopied material on behalf of eligible Duke patrons. See the Interlibrary Loan pages for more information and forms for submitting Interlibrary Loan requests.
