Library Rules

To ensure that the library remains a pleasant and productive research environment for all members of the FETP community, users are kindly requested to obey the following rules:

  • Do not speak when in the main section of the library.
  • Do not smoke, drink, or eat in the library.
  • Switch off or silence all cell phones and electronic pagers before entering the library.
  • Leave all bags on the shelves at the entrance.
  • Treat all library materials with care. Defacing library materials with pens, pencils, highlighters, etc. is strictly forbidden. Violators of this policy may be subject to fines, revocation of library privileges, or other sanctions.
  • Re-shelve all materials to their original location after use. If you are unsure where a book belongs, leave it on the librarian’s desk for shelving.
  • Strictly abide by the FETP’s photocopying rules. Before photocopying anything please refer to the photocopying rules posted next to the copy machine.

Borrowing Procedures

  • To borrow a book, please fill out the card affixed to the inside back cover of the book.

* Note: at certain times, (such as before a problem set is due or prior to an exam) certain books may be placed on reserve and may only be read in the library, to ensure that all participants have equal access to the materials.

Failure to return a book after the receipt of two overdue notices will result in the revocation of borrowing privileges. A book which is not returned within 2 weeks will be presumed lost and a fine equal to the replacement cost of the book will be deducted from the borrower’s monthly stipend. The FETP reserves the right to impose additional sanctions.

Access by the Public

FETP alumni and members of the public with letters of reference are welcome to consult FETP library resources during non-peak hours (9:00 - 11:00 hrs; 15:30 - 16:30 hrs). We regret that library materials only circulate to FETP faculty, staff, and participants.
