Glossary of Terms


Late Fees:
:
The Library has late fees for overdue items. If an item has been borrowed and is not returned by the due late, late fees will accrue. If fees get over $10 you are blocked from borrowing or placing requests. Check the Library homepage for details. (Link to http://library.uws.edu.au/borrowing.phtml)



Library Search box:

The Library search box enables a simultaneous search of a selection of Library databases, a number of web resources and the Library catalogue with additional refining and discovery features.



Login:

UWS students and staff are required to use a user name and password to access some Library services, for example to use the Library from off-campus, place requests and to access items on E-reserve. You will need your Library barcode and your family name.

Some databases also require you to log in before you can use them. Please contact the Library if this occurs.



Logout:
:
When you log in to a Library service or database, you should always log out to protect your privacy or allow other people to use the resource.
