Campus Delivery Service

Faculty have two campus delivery options.  They may:

  • request delivery of library materials to their campus offices
  • request items be checked out for pick up at the 1st floor atrium of RBD Library (just inside the parking deck entrance)

With the latter "pickup at RBD Library" option, please wait for an email, notifying you that "Items are ready for pickup."
