Can faculty members authorize a research assistant or proxy borrower to check out library materials on their behalf?

Faculty members may authorize anyone with a DePaul ID to check out library materials on their account. This privilege allows authorized research assistants to check out DePaul items, I-Share items, or ILLiad items for faculty members at any DePaul campus library. To authorize this privilege, please send a message to libnotice@depaul.edu from your DePaul email account. Include the following details::

• Your name and 7-digit DePaul ID number 
• Assistant's name and 7-digit DePaul ID number
• Date privilege should expire

Library system records do not distinguish items checked out personally by a faculty member from those checked out by an authorized assistant. Faculty members are responsible for all items checked out to their account by the assistant.
