The Circulation department maintains the library's 800,000+ volumes that can be checked out of the McWherter Library. Your University of Memphis ID, college ID or special privileges card is your only means of checkout or inquiry; you should have it with you at all times. You will receive  three email reminders regarding the status of your checked out materials; it is your responsibility to return the books on time.   You have a 3 days grace period where there are no fines applied until the 4th day. In addition to handling checkouts, renewals and returns, the department also processes special privilege applications for high school, alumni, citizen and area college users. The Circulation department houses InterLibrary Loan material (books, articles, videos, microfilms, etc.); you must present your University ID for pickup.
