The SRC library holdings are displayed in our catalog. The SRC librarian (Nadia Zakaria) has agreed to the following procedure:
1. Undergraduates: go to the SRC library to use their collections (Cairo Center, Kasr el Aini St, 11th floor; open Sun - Thurs, 8.30-3.30 p.m.).
2. Faculty and graduates: place their requests using our online request form. IMPORTANT: please inform them to write SRC LIBRARY in the "Comments" field. We will borrow them through the Document Delivery Office, for use in the Main Library only. Turnaround time: 1-2 working days. Collect the document from the Reference Desk.
PROCEDURE FOR REFERENCE STAFF:
These documents will be placed in a box labeled "SRC" for library users to collect. Reference staff should issue the SRC document against the patron’s ID card. Each document will include a piece of paper with the name of the requester and date. When the user returns the document, check if s/he will need it again. If not, please cross out the name and date so that we know that we can return the document to SRC. This was the procedure used with USAID documents. The only difference is that the request is submitted online instead of at the Reference Desk.
