Resources Available through Virginia Tech's Newman Library

The following links take you into Addison (the library catalog) and to Newman Library resources (mostly books, but also a few videos) on that particular subject. Staff can check out books for 30 days, and may renew books up to four times. Videos check out for 3 days. For complete details on your borrowing privileges, see http://www.lib.vt.edu/services/circ-reserve/borrowing.html. If a book is checked out, you may request it through Addison – meaning that when it is returned, we will e-mail you and hold the book for you at the first-floor circulation desk. If you have any questions about any of these resources, please contact Luke Vilelle at lvilelle@vt.edu or call our information desk at 231-9232.
