Policy
MBLWHOI Library books circulate in Woods Hole for the patron's length of stay, or one year, whichever is shorter. Journals and some special collections do not circulate.
Library Cards
Patrons must hold a valid MBLWHOI Access Card to borrow materials. Cards are obtained in the MBL Digital Processing Center, Lillie 203, M-F.
Library Consortium Cards
Members of the public and patrons holding Biosciences Information Synthesis Collaboration (BISC) cards may use the collections onsite only. BISC card holders may make arrangements to borrow materials via interlibrary loan, as appropriate. Patrons holding Boston Library Consortium (BLC) cards may borrow books for up to 60 days. MBLWHOI Library patrons may obtain access cards for BLC and BISC libraries from the library office in the Lillie building of MBL.
