Quick Start Library Guide: Winter Park Campus

While campuses are closed, please wait until the library reopens to return borrowed materials. All fees and fines for Winter Park Campus library materials due during the closure will be waived.

During the closure, interlibrary loans and requests from other state institutions through UBorrow will be unavailable. All existing interlibrary loan requests for physical items are on hold. If you have a request for an electronic resource, such as an online journal article held by another institution, contact Adam Johnson to see if your request can be processed.
