Borrowing from Other Libraries

Where can I borrow from?

USQ students can borrow from any university library in Australia in accordance with the national reciprocal borrowing agreement (University Library Australia). The library catalogues can be accessed online.

How do I join?

Students must be enrolled in current courses for that semester to be able to join. Students join at the Library of their choice.

You will need to produce:

• Photo ID (eg driver's license or student card)
• Proof of your enrolment (eg a printout from USQConnect of your current semester's enrolment)
• Take along your login details for USQConnect as some Libraries may ask you to login to USQConnect to verify your enrolment.
• Student cards will not be acceptable as proof of enrolment.

Some libraries may charge a joining fee, and restrictions usually apply on what you can access and the number of items you may borrow.

If you have encounter problems joining another univeristy libarry, please phone the USQ Library Loans desk on (07) 4631 2471.
