As SJSU SLIS students, you may
borrow items from the CSUF Pollak Library collection because of a unique
partnership existing between SJSU and the CSUF campus, which hosts the
satellite SLIS program. SLIS students are able to use the TitanCard, the
CSUF student identification card, as a library card for borrowing books from
Pollak Library.
 | Before you can borrow items, you will
need to establish a Pollak Library account at the Circulation Desk,
located on the first floor of Pollak Library South. A library account
cannot automatically be opened for you, because Pollak Library does not
have access to SJSU's admissions records. |
| You will need to present proof of SJSU
registration payment when establishing your Pollak account. Registration
documentation may be obtained at the SJSU SLIS South Campus office. |
| Upon establishing your account, you will
be issued a blue TitanCard. The fee for the TitanCard is $10. You can use
the TitanCard to borrow items and for printing and copying in the library,
after you place funds in the account. |
| You may borrow up to 100 books from
Pollak Library's circulating collection. You must use periodicals at the
library, as they do not circulate. |
| You may request items that Pollak
Library does not own through
Link+ (the faster service), or through King Library's
Interlibrary Services
loan service (for items unavailable through Pollak's Link+).
|
| You would use Link+, if your search for
an item in the Pollak Library catalog didn't retrieve any items. Just
click on the gray and blue Link+ button within the unsuccessful search
screen. Your search will automatically be rerun through the Link+
catalogs.
|
| When you request an item, Link+ asks for
your university affiliation. Highlight CSU Fullerton on the pull-down
menu, so the item will be delivered here. Items requested through Link+
are picked up at the Pollak Library Circulation Desk. |
| Your instructors may sometimes place
books or other items on reserve. Search for reserve items from the
Pollak Library homepage,
under Course Reserves
on the Quick Links menu by the name of the course instructor. Items on
reserve may be borrowed three at a time. |
| TitanCard circulation privileges are
only available to you during the semester you are registered as an
SLIS student. Because your TitanCard is issued by CSUF, not SJSU,
these privileges expire at the end of each CSUF semester or
session:
Spring semester: February 20 - May 30th |
|
Summer session: June 1st - August 30th |
|
Fall semester: September 1st - December 31st |
|
Intersession: January 1 - January 31st |
|
Please Note: SLIS students are first
and foremost San José State University students and thus have access to the
full range of privileges accorded to San José State University students.
