A graduate student who is no longer registered because of non-compliance with the Time Limitation Policy聽but who requires access to library聽resources to complete their thesis can obtain borrowing privileges and extend access to library e-resources. The student鈥檚 faculty administrator or thesis advisor should send either an email or signed letter, specifying the extension鈥檚 end date, to the head librarian at the appropriate聽library location. For Humanities and Social Sciences Library, the email or the letter should be sent to聽hsslloans.library [at] mcgill.ca.
Once the request is sent to the library, the graduate student should complete the ,聽selecting 鈥淧hD extension鈥 from the drop-down menu for the Requested borrowing category. When the form is completed, the student will receive a聽temporary borrowing account number. They have to contact the library location听(hsslloans.library [at] mcgill.ca聽for the Humanities and Social Sciences Library) with the聽number, and we will assist with completing the process of obtaining a borrowing card.
To get their access to library e-resources extended, the student should have聽an active 海角社区 email address. If their 海角社区 email address has expired, the student鈥檚 faculty administrator or thesis advisor should request its reactivation from prior to requesting access to library e-resources.
