Books, Journals, and Other Materials

To address the challenges created by the covid-19 pandemic, the Libraries have developed new services to ensure Miami students, faculty and staff can access materials quickly and efficiently.

Options for accessing materials include:

Equipment and Technology

You can still check out books, journals, equipment and technology at the Libraries, including laptops, digital cameras, phone chargers, and more. We’ll be rotating and disinfecting items as they’re returned.

We’ve put marks on the floor at safe distances if you need to wait to speak with someone at the front desk. At the desk, you’ll interact with library staff through clear plastic dividers. This keeps everyone safe while you check out or return items.

If you’re returning a book, calculator, phone charger, pair of headphones, or another small and sturdy item, you can drop it in the book drop outside for a no-contact experience.

If you’re returning a laptop, iPad, camera, or another fragile item, please only return it at the desk.
