Circulation: Home

In order to checkout books or other items, or request ILL (Interlibrary Loan), you need to apply for a library application online. Your Library account is not automatically created upon enrollment or employment. In order to apply for a library account, follow the following guidelines.

Use your eRaider to create a library account:

• Patrons with a TTUHSC El Paso eRaider: Login to the Library Catalog and then click on the left hand side tab titled "Your Personal Details". Once completed, library staff will then accept your application and assign you a barcode/account number. Click here for more instructions. 

• Patrons with no eRaider may sign up as a community user: Use the Unaffiliated Online Library Account Application.

     Need help? Stop by to any library location, or give us a call!

• In order to check out any items, patrons must first fill out a library application online.

• Once your application has been processed by library staff, you may place a book on hold online. Once library staff has retrieved the book, you will receive an e-mail notifying you that the book is ready for check out.

• General Collection materials circulate for two-week periods. These Materials may be renewed twice for additional two-week periods if they are renewed on or before the due date. If they are renewed online before the due date, the borrower will lose out on those days.
