Book Pickup

 RIT community members can submit an online request for physical materials in our collection (books, DVDs, microfilm, etc.), and we will contact you when your items are ready for pickup. This free service is available to all current students, faculty, and staff with an active RIT account.

Faculty who need a reserve item can request it by emailing circwml@rit.edu.
