The barcoded UNC-CH OneCard serves as the library card for all faculty, students, and staff and must be presented when checking out materials. All other patrons who wish to borrow materials from Brauer Library must present a valid borrower's card, which may be obtained from the Davis Library Circulation Department.

TRLN Borrowers:

Borrowers from Duke, NCCU, and NCSU are able to use their University cards at participating TRLN libraries. Patrons must first present their University cards to the Davis Library Circulation department for registration purposes before using their cards at the Brauer Math/Physics Library and other libraries on the UNC-CH campus.

Loan Period by Borrower Type and Material Category

* Journals may be taken out of the Library by UNC-CH faculty and UNC-CH graduate students for photocopying at their home department only.

** Reserves may only be checked out overnight if the professor permits it. The overnight checkout schedule is: Mon-Fri after 3pm; Sat. after 12 pm; Sun. after 7 pm

Items may be renewed if not on hold for another patron or not needed for Reserve. Patrons can bring the book to the library with their library card to have the book renewed. Borrowers can also renew items electronically via the MyAccount Login Page. Please be aware that the number of remote renewals allowed is NOT unlimited. After 3 (THREE) remote renewals, the patron is required to bring the book to the library in person

Note: When you renew an item off-campus, remember to write the new due date on the date due slip.

All items are subject to recall for other users and Reserve. Reserve requests are recalled immediately. Due dates for other items checked out will be changed to 14 days from the date the recall was requested. Due date changes will be noted on the recall notice.

Paying Fines and Fees

Brauer library only accepts payments for fines and fees generated by our library and on the day that they incur. To make payments for items belonging to other libraries and after this time period, patrons will need to go elsewhere. All users should pay regular overdue fines at Davis Library. Faculty members and general library users should also pay outstanding bills at Davis Library. Students should report to the Office of Student Accounts and University Receivables to pay bills generated by the library. That office is located in the Student Academic Services Building North, on south campus at the intersection of Ridge Road and Manning Drive.

It is recommended that all materials be returned to the library from which they were borrowed to avoid delinquency problems. During regular hours, Brauer materials should be returned to the circulation desk in the Brauer Library. If it is not possible to return items during operating hours, items may be returned at Davis Library.

All circulation and billing questions for the Brauer Library should be directed to 962-2323 or michael_shelor@unc.edu.
