As a patron of the Lemieux Library, you are responsible for:
Questions?
For general inquiries, contact the Lemieux Library Circulation Desk at 206-296-6233 or email libcirc@seattleu.edu
You can place holds on items that are currently available at the Seattle University Libraries. You can request items from both the Lemieux and Law Libraries, and chose which library you would like to pick them up from. You will receive an email when your items are ready to picked up.
How long will you hold my item?
Once your hold request is processed, materials will remain on the shelf for three to seven days, depending on material type and loan period.
What happens if I place a hold for an item currently checked out?
If you place a hold for an item currently checked out, you will be placed next in line to borrow the item. A hold request does not change the original due date, but it does prevent the current borrower from renewing it.
For items not currently available at the Seattle University Libraries, please see the Borrowing from Summit and Borrowing from Interlibrary Loan sections for further instructions.
Seattle University students, faculty, and staff may renew books, media, and journals online, by phone, or in person at the Circulation Desk.
How do I locate my due date?
Due dates are available on the "Loan Receipt" emailed to you by the library. You can also view due dates by logging into your SU Primo library account.
Where do I return my items?
Books, media, and journals can be returned to the Lemieux Library Circulation Desk on the 3rd floor during regular library hours, or at any of our three book drops:
Can I mail back my items?
Yes, items can be sent to following adddres:
Attn: Access Services Department
Lemieux Library and McGoldrick Learning Commons
P.O. Box 222000
901 12th Ave
Seattle, WA 98122
The due date will be adjusted at check-in. Please ensure that your package is secure to ensure that all items mailed are received by the library.
Can I return items from other libraries at the Lemieux Library?
Items belonging to other Summit institutions can returned to Lemieux Library. You can also return Lemieux Library items to other Summit institutions. The return date will be adjusted at check-in.
We cannot accept Seattle Public Library or King County Library item returns at the Lemieux Library.
Can I return technology items via book drops?
Please do not return technology loans via book drops. We ask that you only return these items at the Lemieux Library Circulation Desk. If this is not possible, please contact the Lemieux Library Circulation Desk at 206-296-6233 or email libcirc@seattleu.edu
