The Charlotte Theological Library Consortium (CTLC) was begun to allow greater resource sharing amongst the various schools with theology and/or religion programs in the greater Charlotte, North Carolina, area. Each school in the Consortium has agreed to abide by the following borrowing policies. You are advised to have your current student identification with you if you desire to check out materials from another CTLC library. |
CTLC Use Policies
1. Circulating library materials may be borrowed by duly certified faculty,
students, and staff of CTLC member schools and organizations from any
CTLC member library in accordance with the borrowing regulations of the
lending library.
2. Borrowers are responsible for learning circulation and access regulations
at the respective institution's library. Borrowers agree to be governed
by these regulations.
3. Patrons need to borrow books in person. Libraries are not expected
to answer telephone queries or provide materials by mail, except for inter-library
loans requested through standard ILL request forms.
4. Member libraries will maintain a current written statement of their
policies in their public service area.
5. Users of any CTLC library are subject to all fines, rules and regulations
of the servicing library. Patrons will be notified of overdue material
by the library from which the library material was borrowed.
