Convenience-by-proxy

For your convenience, Polk Library permits authorized patrons to check out materials for other patrons. Any patron who wishes to give another patron (their “proxy”) the authority to use his privileges may file a form at the circulation desk.

Two easy steps:
  1. Go to the Polk website at the site listed and print off the Proxy form*, fill it out and return it to the Polk Circulation staff. http://www.uwosh.edu/library/pdf/proxypatron.pdf  This will enable your proxy patron to check out and pick up your items. 
  2. The proxy must present his/her valid TitanCard and give your name when s/he wishes to check out materials for you. 

CAUTION: Proxies will be unable to check out materials if you or your proxy has outstanding library fees or overdue items.

*A department can submit a list of proxy patrons for an entire department by attaching a list of faculty members who wish to be included. Each faculty member’s signature must accompany this list. This would be handy for  graduate assistants, PAs, work study student workers and colleagues.
