2018-2019 Student Handbook 21 Library Services Library – General Information Students studying in Washington D.C. have access to both the library collection at Denver Seminary's local site at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden and electronic resources of the main campus in Littleton, Colorado. Library Hours of Operation Friday .................... 5:00pm – 8:00pm (Other hours by arrangement with Site Coordinator or Library Assistant) Schedule changes will be posted on the library website. Phone number: 301-386-9415 Checking Out Books The D.C. library utilizes a self-checkout system. Instruction sheets are posted in the library. Books may be checked out anytime during library hours or at other times by arrangement. Periodicals are not available for check out. No more than 26 books may be checked out at any one time. Students may renew their checked out books one time by accessing their record through the My Account tab in the online catalog. However, if another student has placed a hold on the same book, the checkout period for the book will be reduced to two weeks. If a book is needed for Reference, the library may recall the book immediately. Students in possession of books needed for Reference or Reserve must return the book by the date requested or be subject to fines. Library / I.D. Cards All Denver Seminary students must have a current Denver Seminary Photo I.D. card in order to check out library materials. Using another student's ID card for any purpose, including checking out library material, is prohibited. New students are issued a student photo ID card at the beginning of their first semester. Students must complete an application form online. ID cards will be processed at the main Denver Seminary library after receipt of ID photos and sent to the D.C site for student pick up. Barcodes (applied on the back of the student ID cards) are necessary for library checkout privileges. Returning students must renew their library privileges each semester. This can be accomplished by presenting their Denver Seminary Washington, D.C. Photo I.D. to the library staff. Fines Late fees for overdue general collection books are 25 cents per book per day. Fines will also be charged on items not properly checked-out. In most cases, a lost or damaged item results in a fine of $80.00. Refusal to pay fines or habitual violation of library policies may result in suspension of library privileges as well as a hold placed upon the student's diploma. Higher late fees may be charged for limited checkout materials such as Reserve items. Denver Seminary Library Services – Main Campus The Carey S. Thomas Library and its staff serve the Denver Seminary community by providing and facilitating access to information supporting the Seminary's curriculum, research, and training. Contact Information
