Can Graduate Assistants carry out library tasks for faculty?
Yes, GAs can check out materials for faculty members. The professor should send the student to the circulation desk with the professor’s ID, and a letter with his/her signature which identifies the student who is authorized to check out materials for the professor. The letter will be kept on file at circulation. This procedure will need to be repeated if/when the professor changes GAs. GAs may also pick up Interlibrary Loan materials, and can be added as “authorized users” on the professor’s ILL account. To learn how, visit the ILL page.
