ARCHE Cards - Policies & Procedures

Although all libraries are expected to meet the normal demands of their users, specialized research needs may sometimes require that a faculty member or student use the resources of another library in the Atlanta metro area. As members of the Atlanta Regional Council for Higher Education (ARCHE), we are permitted to issue cards which allow access and borrowing privileges (sometimes limited) to the library resources of a specific ARCHE member, when certain conditions are met.

ARCHE InterLibrary Use policy does not allow for using materials from another library merely for convenience, so before issuing a card, we will try to determine whether your library needs could be met from within our own collection. In some cases, you may be referred to the Liaison Librarian for your discipline for a research consultation before a card will be issued.

Those who wish to request an ARCHE card may go to the Reference Desk at any time the Library is open. The following individuals are authorized to issue ARCHE cards: For a complete explanation of the ARCHE InterLibrary Use Policy, as well as a list of member institutions, go to http://www.atlantahighered.org/memberservices/librarypolicies.asp
