IEALC

Statement of Purpose	"The purpose of the Inland Empire Academic Libraries Cooperative (IEALC) is to provide reciprocal library borrowing privileges to currently registered students of the participating institutions. Faculty and staff borrowing privileges are outside of this Agreement and are covered by other policies of the individual member institutions.
Membership	Membership is open to academic libraries in tax exempt, accredited institutions of higher education located in the Southern California Inland Empire. Participating libraries are required to have a collection of library materials that is locally accessible to students... A member library may withdraw from IEALC by notifying the Chair of its decision three months in advance of the effective date (June 1 deadline) of its withdrawal. The Chair will then notify other member libraries of this decision. The library wishing to withdraw from IEALC understands that it remains responsible for any obligations incurred due to its participation in IEALC.
Conditions for Borrowing and Lending	Application for IEALC authorization cards must be made by students at the library of the institution where they are currently registered. Authorization cards may be issued to currently enrolled students at the discretion of each member institution. Authorization cards must be presented at the circulation desk of each library where the student intends to borrow materials. A member library may require additional identification. Local lending rules at each participating library, including limits on the number of items borrowed and the levying of fines, shall apply to the borrowing of materials from that library.
Responsibilities of Membership	Members agree that it is their institutional responsibility to provide library resources that support the basic programmatic and curricular needs of their own students, and recognize that participation in IEALC is designed to enhance, not replace, local library resources. Participating libraries agree to limit IEALC borrowing privileges to students whose research or special instructional needs extend beyond the resources of the home library. Members agree to accept financial responsibility for the replacement cost and associated billing costs of any materials loaned to their students under this Agreement when these materials have been lost or damaged."
