Film Screening Policy

To ensure availability and quality, films scheduled to be screened by Media Services staff will be set aside after cleaning, repairing (if needed) and verifying availability. On the day of a scheduled screening, films may not be borrowed prior to the screening. Students may borrow films after a screening, or on any day prior to the day of the scheduled screening, and regular reserve loan guidelines apply.

This policy only applies to films listed in the daily screening schedule.

Films scheduled for classroom screenings may be used outside the Libraries; please return immediately after the screening.
