Carrels


Closed carrels, designed for quiet research and study, are available primarily for advanced degree (i.e., Th.M., Ph.D. and Resident D.Min.) students. Any remaining closed carrels may be assigned to:


Closed Carrel
  • LSTC and McCormick regular faculty on sabbatical leave.
  • LSTC and McCormick adjunct and emeritus faculty.
  • Visiting scholars and dignitaries affiliated with LSTC and McCormick.

The JKM Library assigns closed carrels for the duration of a semester at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters on a first come basis. Ordinarily, failure to use a closed carrel on a regular basis may result in the carrel being assigned to another library user. If you plan on using your carrel next semester, you must submit a new application by the beginning of the fall or spring semester. Please contact  Barry C. Hopkins for a closed carrel application.The replacement cost for a lost key is $75.00.


Carrels may be used only when the JKM Library is open. You must leave your carrel at closing time or when there is an emergency.


In order to ensure free access to library materials by all researchers, no non-circulating library materials (e.g., current or bound periodicals, reference materials, microform) may be stored in a closed carrel. All circulating library materials stored in your carrel must be checked out at the circulation desk. JKM Library staff will periodically check closed carrels to ensure compliance with this policy. Failure to comply with these regulations will result in the carrel being reassigned to another library user.

 


If you decide to vacate your carrel at the end of the semester, please take all personal property with you. JKM Library assumes no responsibility for any items lost or stolen from your carrel.


Because closed carrel walls do not extend to the ceiling, please respect the needs of other users and keep your voices low and your conversations to a minimum. Cellular telephone use is discouraged; if possible, please turn off the ringer of your cell phone while in the library.


No food or smoking is permitted in a carrel.



Lockers


Library users affiliated with LSTC or McCormick are welcome to apply for the use of a small storage locker on the second or third floors of the library. In order to ensure free access to library materials by all researchers, no non-circulating library materials (e.g., current or bound periodicals, reference materials, microform) may be stored in a locker. All circulating library materials stored in a locker must be checked out at the circulation desk. JKM Library reserves the right to check lockers periodically. Failure to comply with these regulations will result in the locker being reassigned to another library user. Replacement cost for a lost key is $5.00.
