Returning library materials

Do you have library materials to return, either ours or interlibrary loan? There are three ways you can return the books to the CSUMB library. 

  • You can drop them off at the book drop located on the side of the library building nearest Divarty St.
  • You can mail the books to the library using USPS Media Mail. The library mailing address is:

CSUMB Library
Attn: Circulation
100 Campus Center
Seaside, CA 93955

  • You can drop off the books at the nearest CSU library.
  • No overdue fees are being charged at the present time.

Suggesting book purchases:

The CSUMB Library welcomes your ideas on materials you'd like to see added to our collections. We will consider all suggestions as the budget allows. Use the Suggest a Book Purchase form to request materials (book or other media) not already owned by CSUMB Library or available through CSU+ that you need for your research and/or academic instruction support.

***Would you like to request a book and have it delivered from Amazon or another vendor to your house for free? We are piloting a project where new library books are sent directly to the requestor if approved. Limit two requests per student/faculty. IMPORTANT: No textbooks will be purchased. Materials must already be released, no preorders.
