Retrieval of Unprocessed Materials

Library material listed in the UT Arlington Library Catalog with status of "IN PROCESS" has not been completely processed for circulation. It can, however, be specially handled and retrieved for your use.

You may request retrieval of such unprocessed materials with this form or visit the circulation desk at any of the UTA Libraries locations.

When we receive your request by 6:00 pm on Monday through Friday, the material will be ready for you to pick up in 30 minutes at the Central Library circulation desk. If we receive the request after 6:00 pm, or on weekends or holidays, it will be available the next business day by 8:00 am.

The material can be picked up at a location of your choice. However, if you opt to pick up at Architecture & Fine Arts Library or Science & Engineering Library, the material may not be available for up to 24 hours after your request due to campus mail delivery.  We will contact you by your choice of phone or e-mail when the material is ready to be picked up. If your request cannot be fulfilled, we will contact you and let you know why.  The material will be held for you at the circulation desk of your choice for 8 days. You will be able to check out the material for the loan period you generally receive as a UTA Libraries user.

For more information on material pickup and circulation policies, contact the Central Library Service Desk in person, by phone at 817-272-3395, or by e-mail at library-uss@listserv.uta.edu.
