UBorrow |
If you happen to be close to a different PASSHE school, you can
use that library's book collection as if you were at Mansfield.
You can borrow materials there and return them to MU, or borrow
materials at MU and return them at another PASSHE school. You will need your Mansfield University ID card to borrow materials. |
Note: Library materials will only be shipped to addresses in the USA. Articles in an electronic format are available to patrons worldwide.
