CAI's How to
Check Out Books
Go to our catalog and find the book you need by typing the author, title or keyword in the search box.
Filter Limit to -> Available in Library Collection & Source Type -> Books
Identify the book you want, make sure that we (Optometría) have it in our holdings, and write the following information in a paper (or take a screenshot or even a photo): Title, Location & Call No.
If it’s located in the Circulation or Boards Collections, you can locate the book yourself, use the Call No. to alphabetically find it. Do not hesitate to ask for help to any of our librarians. And if it’s in other Collections, request it at the Reserve Counter.
Go the Reserve Counter and a librarian will do the rest.
