Stacks privileges
The Watson Library stacks are open to authorized research staff only. A stacks privileges form is available at the Circulation Desk. The Head of Reader Services or the Manager for Circulation and Collections must approve stacks privileges.
If you have been approved for stacks privileges:
You may use the Watson Library stacks during regular stacks hours. You must have a stacks orientation from a Circulation Desk staff member before using the stacks.
If you have not been approved for stacks privileges:
You are not permitted to use the library stacks. You may have materials paged from the stacks on Monday – Friday from 10:00 am – 4:00 pm. You will pick up your paged items at the pick-up/return window in the Reading Room after your name is called. You will be allowed to use the items for the day in the Library or to put them on reserve.
