About Access & Delivery
We help JMU patrons and other Libraries’ departments by delivering library materials to on-campus locations and maintaining the condition of the Libraries’ physical collections through shelving, tidying up, and relocating collections. We also help with the systems and software that support borrowing library materials and managing patrons’ library accounts.
