On-Campus Faculty and Staff – Accessing Library Materials (Summer 2021)

Although the building is closed this summer, you can still borrow books and films from the library using our contactless pick-up system! Request materials by signing in to OneSearch, locating the item(s) you want, and using the “Request” button. (The same way you request material from Roanoke College.) Requested items will be pulled within 24 hours (Mon-Fri) and users will receive a message in their @hollins.edu email account when the items are available to pick up.

Contactless pick-up is available from 11 am – 4 pm (Mon-Fri) at the accessible/elevator entrance to the Wyndham Robertson Library. You will be required to scan your Hollins ID to open the door. Your item(s) will be in a bag clearly labeled with your name.

Delivery to faculty and staff offices will not be available this summer; all requested items (including inter-library loan) will need to be picked up at the Library.

The rest of the building is closed. If you need to browse the collection, faculty are asked to contact their liaison librarian; staff and summer student employees/research fellows should email library@hollins.edu.

Questions? Please contact Karen Ryan, Circulation Coordinator (ryankj@hollins.edu), or Rebecca Seipp, Assistant University Librarian (seipprl@hollins.edu).

Instruction

Working with the faculty, the library provides course-integrated research activities for students, including:

  • Class sessions
  • Individual and small group meetings
  • Active research assignments and logs

Contact your liaison librarian for customized research instruction, assignments and tours.

Reserves

The library will place books or films on Reserve for your classes; articles should be scanned and made available via Moodle. In-Library use only designation is available for personal copies. Please turn your materials in early enough to allow time for processing, and include a course syllabus with your first request.

OER
