See our copying and scanning policies.

Instructors may place physical or digital books, media, articles, and web pages on course reserve. Physical reserves are housed at either the Coe Library Help Desk or the Brinkerhoff Geology Library. Digital items are accessed via the WyoCourses Readings and Resources tab.

See our Readings and Resources page for more information.

Please see our laptop and iPad policies.

The amount of equipment available to borrow is limited. In order to make equipment available to as many patrons as possible, loan periods and policies are firmly enforced:

• Borrowers that do not return equipment when it is due will be billed for replacement and associated costs.
• Repeated billing for overdue laptops, iPads, and other equipment may result in the loss of borrowing privileges of these items. 

Each library's Help Desk is the initial repository for lost and found items. Please make inquiries in person or over the phone.

• Coe Library (307) 766-3190
• Geology Library (307) 766-3374
• Learning Resources Center (307) 766-2527

Items found in the library should be turned in to the Help Desk where they will be logged and secured in the Lost and Found.

To claim an item from the Lost and Found the owner must provide an accurate description of the item and present their WyoOne Campus ID or a state/federal photo ID.

Unclaimed WyoOne cards are forwarded to the Campus ID Office. All other Lost and Found items are transferred to the University of Wyoming Police Department, 1010 E. Ivinson or (307) 766-5179, on a weekly basis.

The University of Wyoming Libraries is not responsible for unattended personal items left in any library.

Use My Accounts to access the following information:

• Libraries, Law, and Prospector items checked out to your main library account
• Outstanding hold requests
• Outstanding fees

Eligible library items are automatically renewed. If you prefer to renew early, you may also use My Accounts.

Use your Interlibrary Loan account to see those requests and checked out items or to request a renewal.

If QuickSearch indicates an item is "Available" but it is not on the shelf, ask at a Help Desk for a search. If the item is found, the Libraries will notify you by email and the item will be held for you for 7 days.

Once you have asked for a search, you may also request the item through Prospector or Interlibrary Loan (if you are a UW student, faculty or staff).

If the item cannot be found after multiple searches, the item will be declared missing and library staff will review the item for possible replacement.
