HOURS OF OPENING, GENERAL LIBRARY
During the winter session the General Library is open on week days from
9:00 A. M. to 10:30 P. M. and on Sundays from 2:30 to 10:30 P. M. During
the Summer Quarter the week day hours are 8:30 A. M. to 9:30 P. M. and the
Sunday hours are 2:00 to 4:00 P. M. During vacations the open hours on week
days are from 9:00 A. M. to 1:00 P. M. The General Library is closed on
New Year's Day, Founder's Day, the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving Day, and
Christmas, and on Sundays in vacation periods.
LOAN OF BOOKS, GENERAL LIBRARY
All books may be used within the reading rooms.
Books may be borrowed for use outside of the General Library by (1) members
of the University; (2) former officers and professors who are residing at
the University; and (3) card holders. Cards are issued to residents of Charlottesville
and vicinity and to visitors to the University who are guaranteed in writing by
a member of the faculty who is of professorial rank and who is not a member of
the library staff.
Loans outside of Charlottesville or vicinity may also be made by inter-library
loan through a local library or by arrangement with the Extension Division of
the University.
Reference books, rare books (including genealogical works), and current numbers
of magazines are not loaned out of the general library. Certain rare editions
which are desired for reading in connection with university courses may be loaned
on receipt of written request from the Professor in charge of the course.
Books reserved for collateral reading may be borrowed for over night use
one-half hour before the closing of the library. Reserved books are not to be
removed from the reading room at other times unless written permission has
been granted by the Professor for whom the books have been reserved.
During vacations between terms students may borrow books up to the number
of five by leaving a money deposit with the circulation librarians.
Books borrowed by members of the faculty of professorial rank or by instructors
who are not taking graduate courses are subject to return on request
by the librarians; all such loans should be returned before the first of June of
each year, and records previous to that date should be cleared before further
borrowing of books.
Books borrowed by registered graduate students, hospital internes, and qualified
non-student employees of the University are loaned for the current term, on the
understanding that they may be recalled when needed by other readers. The
records of each term should be cleared before borrowing is resumed on the following
term.
All other loans are for periods of two weeks or less, the date of return
being indicated on the slip within the back cover of the book. The borrower should
examine this date in each case, since at the end of each term the period of loan
is shortened and during the summer quarter the regular period is one week.
All except professorial loans are subject to fines of ten cents a day for
late return, and also to the replacement cost of the book for loss or defacement.
On reserved books there is a fine of ten cents an hour but not to exceed twenty-five
cents for the first day, and fines of twenty-five cents a day for each succeeding
day or part of day. The maximum fines are three dollars for an ordinary loan
and five dollars for the loan of a reserved book. Further accumulation of fines
ceases as soon as the loss of a book is reported.
If any fines remain unpaid for fifteen days after the date on which they are
due, the Librarian shall, by resolution of the Rector and Visitors, notify the
Dean of the Department in which the student is entered, and such student shall by
him be required to cease his privileges as a student until the library account has
been satisfactorily settled.
