Using Other Libraries

There are a number of ways to obtain the materials you need when you can't come to Johnson Library.

University System of Georgia Libraries

Students enrolled at SPSU may check out books from any other library in the University System of Georgia. You will need a picture ID, such as a driver's license or SPSU ID card. You must be currently enrolled at SPSU and your information in the library's database must be current.

Fines are not charged for overdue materials borrowed from other lilbraries in the University System. However, a single overdue book, from another library, can result in a block being placed on your library record, preventing you from checking out materials from any University System library, even from Johnson Library, until the material is returned. Keep track of materials you have checked out and fees owed through your account in GIL.

Interlibrary Use Cards

Interlibrary Use Cards allow currently enrolled students to visit other libraries to check out materials. Students enrolled in distance courses may apply for cards to go to other college and university libraries in the Atlanta/Athens area. Cards are issued for the current semester only. To obtain an Interlibrary Use Card, ask your professor or e-mail one of the lilbrary contacts.

Interlibrary Loan

  • Interlibrary Loan provides access to books and photocopies of articles obtained from any library in the country. If you are unable to come to Johnson Library to pick up interlibrary loan materials, special arrangements may be made to deliver materials to you. Ask your professor or one of the librarians to make these arrangements.
