If you cannot locate a book on the shelf, this may be due to one of the following reasons:
-
Another borrower has checked out the book. Please check if there is a “due date” under the book information in Discovery . If this is the case, you may request that the book be held for you once returned.
-
Someone else is currently using the book. If this is the case, search for it again after a few hours.
-
The book was just returned and has not been re-shelved yet. Check the book carts by the elevator, in case the book has been left there. In case it is not there, search for it again after a few hours.
-
The book does not belong to the collection you are searching for. There are three basic collections of books in John S. Bailey Library: When searching for the call number of a book in Discovery, make sure you also note down the collection to which it belongs.
-
The book belongs to another ACG Library. If this is the case, you may request that the book be sent to JSB Library for you to borrow.
