IntraSystem Loan allows students, faculty, and staff to request books or journal articles from a library within the UH system.

  • Students (undergraduate and graduate) are charged $3.00 per item for A/V and microforms.
  • Beginning January 2009, $1.00 per item will be charged if a book or journal article is not picked up. $3.00 per item will be charged if an A/V or microform item is not picked up. These fees will apply to everyone: undergraduate students, graduate students, faculty, and staff.
  • Audiovisual materials from Sinclair must be requested at least two weeks prior to the date needed.
