Library Privileges after Leaving Fontbonne

ALUMNI

Books and Audio-Visual Materials

Fontbonne University alumni are welcome and encouraged to utilize their borrowing privileges. A valid alumni card and a current driver’s license or other state identification are needed to check out items from the Fontbonne University Library. An alumni card can be obtained by contacting the Alumni/Development Office. The loan period and renewals are the same as for current students.

Database Resources

These resources are accessible to anyone in the library or at any computer on the Fontbonne University campus that is connected to the University’s network. However, due to software licenses, remote access to all electronic resources is available only to current Fontbonne University faculty, staff, and students.

EMERITUS FACULTY

Emeritus Faculty Status

A faculty member achieves emeritus status by following the procedures in the latest Fontbonne Policy Manual, v. 4.

Books and Audio-Visual Materials

Fontbonne University emeritus faculty are automatically entered into the library database as emeritus faculty with the same borrowing privileges as other faculty. Emeritus faculty can borrow books from MOBIUS by using their old Fontbonne ID number, just as other faculty do.

Database Resources

Fontbonne University emeritus faculty who have chosen to retain a university network account will continue to have remote access to all library subscription resources. Faculty who choose not to retain their account will still have access to resources through any computer connected to the campus network. Policies and procedures on maintaining a university account are available in the latest Fontbonne Policy Manual, v. 2.  

EMERITUS STAFF

Emeritus Staff Status

An administrative staff member at Fontbonne at the level of Dean or higher, who is retiring after 10 years or more of service, can be extended library privileges, on the recommendation of the Provost.

Books and Audio-Visual Materials

Fontbonne University emeritus staff are entered into the library database as emeritus faculty with the same borrowing privileges as faculty. Emeritus staff can borrow books from MOBIUS by using their old Fontbonne ID number, just as faculty do.

Database Resources

These resources are accessible to anyone in the Library or at any computer on the Fontbonne University campus that is connected to the University’s network. Because Fontbonne e-mail accounts are terminated when staff employees leave the institution, there is no way to authenticate users. Therefore, remote access to databases is not available.

Approved by Library Advisory Committee, October 13, 2016.
