Proxy Borrowing: Disability Resource Center-registered students may designate another person to borrow library materials on their behalf.
Learn more about proxy borrowing and the proxy card application.

An ADA entrance to the Science & Engineering Library is located on the West side of the building's Lower Level (see the ADA entrance on the floor plan).
To enter the library through the ADA door, contact the Science & Engineering Library circulation desk to have it opened. To exit using the ADA door, patrons can ring the doorbell adjacent to the door, and library staff will disarm and open the door.
Student patrons may also contact the Disability Resource Center (DRC) to request ID card access to this door, which lets them enter and exit S&E through this door without needing staff help.
