The Library is
intended for the use of all members of the IUP community. While we are
pleased to permit visitors the use of our various library materials and
resources within the library building, you must apply for borrowing
privileges by way of a Library Card. Our mission here at the Regional
Campus is to provide research support to the students and faculty of the
First-Year Program and build on the information literacy skills of the
first-year student for life long learning. IUP Library ID cards for
members of the IUP community or Library Special Borrower cards for
visitors can be obtained at the Main Campus.

semester to another. However, you may call (724) 463-1204

E-ZBorrow,
electronically
in full-text through

requested through
ILLIAD

loaned items at the click of a button without the travel and
inconveniences of travel to the Main Campus.

Books housed in our Punxsutawney Regional Campus Library
can also be shipped to the Main Campus Library - Circulation Desk
(for your use upon request). Please exercise your privileges
to borrow materials housed elsewhere and have them shipped to you. All of our requests are handled
promptly and can be at your fingertips within two business days, if/when the book
is available. We ship and receive book loans daily for your

specific class and can be borrowed for your reading pleasure.
Enjoy the benefits of reading:
College isn't just about being
in the classroom - it's about living life, being in a community,
and learning more about yourself and the world around you.
