Procedure For Giving Out A Vcal Card To Champlain Faculty Members

What should I do when a Champlain faculty member wants to check out a book from another library?

Champlain may borrow books using their school ID to borrow books from UVM & Sto. Michael's College.

1) The faculty member should have a VCAL ID given to him or her from their home institution.

See the VCAL site if you want to know more about its members http://www.vermontlibraries.org/vcal.

2) The VCAL ID must also have an expiration date sticker on the back of the card.

3) The faculty member must also present another picture form of ID like a school ID, driver's license or passport.

4) We would place a bar code on the back of the VCAL ID card.

5) We would create an account for the faculty member. See How to Create a Reciprocal Faculty Account Tutorial.

6) Last but not least … we need to track this information. Please fill out the VCAL Faculty Reciprocal Borrowing Authorization Form and print out a copy for our records.
