Partner Libraries

The APU Libraries have made a number of cooperative agreements to allow APU students, faculty, and staff to borrow materials from other academic and public libraries.

LINK+

LINK+ is a cooperative arrangement between 53 public and academic libraries in California and Nevada. It allows students, faculty, and staff from member libraries to electronically request an item not available in their own library, and to have that item delivered to their own library for check-out within 2 to 4 business days. APU will mail the book directly to Regional Center requestors.

Learn more about LINK+ and access the LINK+ catalog at www.apu.edu/

.

Many institutions that are members of LINK+ participate in its Visiting Patron program. This program allows a patron from a LINK+ library to use his/her library card in person at another LINK+ library. Items are checked out through LINK+ and are borrowed for the same time period as a LINK+ request. When visiting another library that participates in Visiting Patron, please have your library card and ID present at the time of checkout.

For the most current listing of LINK+ member libraries, see the LINK+ directory. To see which LINK+ libraries participate in the Visiting Patron program, see the LINK+ web site.
