Borrowing Materials from Feinberg Library
Overview
Library patrons can check out materials at the Service Desks on the first and second levels. A current SUNY Plattsburgh identification card or Feinberg Library Special Borrower's card (for alumni, community guests, and emeriti) is required.
Patrons checking out materials assume personal and financial responsibility for all overdue and/or lost items that are on their account. Never borrow materials for anyone other than yourself.
Due Dates for Borrowed Materials
- Books in the General Collection and Government Documents circulate for 28 days with a maximum of two renewals.

- Videocassettes and DVDs circulate for seven days with a maximum of one renewal.

Renewing Materials
Request renewals at the second-level Service Desk in person or by phone. You do not need to have the items with you to request a renewal. The renewal period is the same as the original loan period. You may be denied a renewal if you have any unpaid fines or if another customer has requested one or more of the items.
