Faculty may request to have authorized research/teaching assistants borrow library materials on their behalf. To begin the authorization process, please complete the Borrowing Proxy form. You will receive a reply via email when the proxy borrower account is set up.
To check out materials from any ULS location in-person as a proxy, the approved borrower must present their own Pitt ID and inform the library staff they are borrowing on behalf of a faculty member. Library materials (books, films, interlibrary loan items, etc.) placed on-hold by the faculty member or pulled from the shelf may then be checked out directly to the faculty member’s account.
Please note:
Please Ask Us if you have any questions!
