At this time, Special Borrowers cards are not accepted at the USF Polytechnic Library. Alumni and members of the community are nevertheless welcome to use the resources in-house.

Self-renewals are possible and permit to: view a list of all materials currently checked-out to a specific account, renew any or all items (some exceptions exist) at one time, or print a list of the renewed items. Use this form if there are problems with self-renewal.
