Library Accounts

Patrons are able to perform many different tasks: renew items, check due dates, request items, by going to the library website at https://www.library.vanderbilt.edu/. Under Services, click on "My Account," which will take you to the "My Library Card" page. From here, users can:

View loan items (i.e. checked-out or borrowed) to their account
Renew items
Requested items
Fines + Fees
Blocks + Messages

Once signed in, faculty members may request that any non-reference item be delivered to their faculty mailbox by using "Faculty Delivery" button for items found in the catalog.
