Using the Collection

The collection is open during regular business hours (M-F, 8am-5pm). All are welcome to use the collection in-house, although only IOA-affiliated users may borrow materials. Appointments are recommended for external users. Many of our resources are available via the internet and are accessible anytime.

Borrowing/Circulation

Borrowing privileges are extended to persons affiliated with the Institute. Most materials in the Information Center may be borrowed; however journals do not circulate out of the building. Items may be borrowed for 4 weeks at a time. Borrowers are responsible for returning the items in a timely manner or they will be charged replacement costs. Look for signs in the library about how to borrow materials. Ask a staff member if you have questions.

Interlibrary Lending

The IOA Information Center does not provide ILL services (this includes borrowing books from other UNC libraries).
