CIRCULATION the Library's Combined Circulation And CIRCULATION The Library’s combined Circulation and Information Counter is located centrally on the first floor of the LRC. This is where the checkout desk is, near the center of the library on the 1st floor. Open during library hours. If a staff member has stepped away from the desk, please ring the bell. Entrance into the Library is through a security system portal in front of the counter. In addition to the 24- hour book drop accessible from outside, another book drop is located in this counter. INTERLIBRARY LOANS We will gladly locate and deliver you material not available in the WTC Library, which may be requested from other libraries. This is a free service reserved only for WTC faculty, registered students, and staff. Requested, photocopied periodical articles and book pages are complimentary and usually sent back by e-mail to the patron through the interlibrary loan process as a PDF. Loan requests are fulfilled at varying lengths of time. Please ask the librarian on duty or someone at the circulation desk for assistance. RESERVES Instructors may place materials on reserve at the library behind the circulation desk and specify how long students can use these items. Generally students can make copies or use the item within the library building. For more information, you can call the library at 325-574-7678 or email us at [email protected]. E-READERS Kindle Fire Available now for 2 hour checkout Newly loaded e-books Movies, apps, games, music, reading and more, plus Amazon’s revolutionary, cloud-accelerated web browser Vibrant color touch screen with extra-wide viewing angle Fast, powerful dual-core processor WESTERN TEXAS COLLEGE LIBRARY IN-HOUSE LOAN POLICY FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICES The WTC Library offers Netbook laptops for use within. They are loaned out at the front circulation desk and can leave the premises OVERNIGHT, but must be checked back in the following day. The Netbook can then be checked back in for a total maximum of 3 times during a 7 day period. Late fees: $10 per day. Note: there may be a waiting list depending upon availability. Each tablet and its accompanying case will be uniquely numbered and bar coded. Patrons must be at least 18 and have a valid State Driver’s License or International Passport, provide a student Library account number, maintain a valid library account in good standing, and read and agree to the WTC Library In-House Loan Policy. The library will keep the patron’s ID until the device has been checked back in. Patrons may check out only one device at a time. They are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Under no circumstance will a patron ever be allowed to check out anything for another person. The WTC Library assumes no responsibility if a device is stolen while checked out to a user. The patron is responsible for any damages incurred while loaned out. The WTC Library will assess damage and decide on the appropriate fees to charge. Borrowers should report any damages at the time of return. Damages not disclosed at the time of return will still result in charges to the borrower’s account. Irresponsible use may result in the loss of library privileges indefinitely. A replacement fee in the amount of $500.00 will be applied for laptop computers that are lost, stolen, or damaged while checked out to a patron. Printing is not possible from the Netbook laptops. If patrons need to print a document, patrons may utilize one of the library’s public access computers. Any individual student who violates the In-House Loan Policy For Electronic Devices will forfeit all library services, at a minimum, for the rest of the day and at a maximum, indefinitely. Violations will be determined initially by the WTC Library staff. The library director may add further suspension and will provide formal notice. Name/Signature _______________________________________ Date PHOTOCOPIES A copier is located on the first floor of the library, and can only be accessed with a departmental code number. Students may request one of the library staff to make copies at 10 cents per copy, 15 cents for a duplex copy (2-sided). If available, microfilm copies can be made for 10 cents a copy. All requests for copies must comply with the federal copyright law.

In most of the world, the default length of copyright is the life of the author plus either 50 or 70 years. In the United States, the term for most existing works is for a term ending 70 years after the death of the author. * Once a copyright has expired, the work is no longer protected by copyright law and it enters the public domain. Works are in the public domain if their kind is not covered by intellectual property rights or if the intellectual property rights have expired, have been forfeited, or have never been claimed. If you have any questions, please ask the library director for assistance. ARCHIVES The Western Texas College Archives collection is located on the 2nd floor. It consists of books, pamphlets, microfilm, microfiche readers and newspapers. Unique materials are placed in the history room collection for WTC students, faculty, staff, administration and members of the local community and afar. General Policies The Archives Room is kept locked when not in use. Reference staff will open it at the request of local history researchers during normal library hours and maintain a log of users. Materials may not leave the room for any reason unless approved by a library staff member. If a patron is not familiar with how to use microfiche or a microfilm reader, he or she should seek the assistance of the circulation staff. Researcher and User Responsibilities Users are encouraged to take notes only in pencil and handle all materials with care. There is a photocopier on the first floor to use for history room resources with the consent of reference staff. It is the responsibility of the researcher to follow all copyright laws. The WTC Library hopes to eventually house genealogy resources, like such as electronic databases. For genealogy and archiving research, we suggest trying the following online databases: FamilySearch https://www.familysearch.org/ HeritageQuest Online http://www.heritagequestonline.com/hqoweb/library/do/index MOBILE APPS Welcome to the Library of the 21st Century.

To Honor Our Past: Historical Research, Library History and the Historiographical Imperative: Conceptual Reflections and Exploratory Observations Jean-Pierre V. M. Hérubel HSSE, University Libraries, Purdue University Abstract: This exploratory discussion considers history of libraries, in its broadest context; moreover, it frames the entire enterprise of pursuing history as it relates to LIS in the context of doing history and of doing history vis-à-vis LIS. Is it valuable intellectually for LIS professionals to consider their own history, writing historically oriented research, and what is the nature of this research within the professionalization of LIS itself as both practice and discipline? Necessarily conceptual and offering theoretical insight, this discussion perforce tenders the idea that historiographical innovations and other disciplinary approaches and perspectives can invigorate library history beyond its current condition.
