for your group, see By special arrangement, and upon demonstrated need, library borrowing privileges may be extended to individuals in your group. To be considered for library borrowing your group should be housed locally, must be getting Brown IDs, and should be on campus for at least two weeks. As a sponsor, you must guarantee that all library materials will be safely returned at the end of the program, and that any outstanding bills or fines will be paid. In order to check out library material,
participants must
have a Brown ID. You arrange for this with the Course Reserves, "Honor Reserves," and Study Carrels It is sometimes possible to arrange for selected readings to be gathered in the library for members of your group to use. If your group will have library borrowing privileges, your readings may be placed on library course reserve. Another way to gather readings together for your group is to have them placed in a box, shelf, orstudy carrel for individuals to consult in the library. How to Arrange for Library Course Reserves and Carrels In order to determine the best method to meet your needs, please speak to the Course Reserve staff at the library of primary interest to you:
