Q. How do I check out a book?

Hofstra University ID serves as a library card for students, faculty, and staff.

Please take your items to the Circulation Desk in Axinn Library to check them out.

Hofstra students can request paging for available items from Axinn Library using the online catalog's Request Hold feature. Library staff will retrieve the requested item(s) from the stacks and notify students when they are available.

Hofstra Faculty members can request on-campus delivery of materials from Axinn Library through the online catalog's Request Hold feature. Books will be delivered to faculty members during their office hours, within two business days of the request.

Alumni who wish to borrow materials from the library must have an active alumni card. For questions about an alumni card, please contact Alumni Affairs at: (516) 463-6636 - Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m or 
E-mail: alumnioffice@hofstra.edu.
