The document provides instructions for using the Daytona State library website and resources. It explains how to log in to the library website, search for books both physically in the library and online, find book information like location and availability, understand call numbers to locate books on shelves, check books out and renew them, and how to request books be delivered between campuses. The instructions are broken into clear sections to guide students through each step of using the library services and resources.

“Daytona State/Daytona”

DeLand campus library

request it (see below)

19. Reference or Circulation?
0 If the book says Circulation, it can be checked out.
Circulating books at the Daytona campus are on the
first floor of the library.
0 If the book says Reference, it cannot be checked out.
You may use it within the library but cannot take it out
of the building. You can make copies of anything you
like.

0 Books are shelved alphabetically by the first two
letters, then numerically after that.
0 Sometimes you will have to look at the front of the
book for the call number, if the book is very thin.
0 Books are filed by subject. If you find one good book
on your subject, the other books like it will be right
beside it.

Circulation Desk, at the front door of the library, to

want is in Daytona (or vice versa), you can also
request the book.
