The Library also participates in the Louisiana Academic Library Information Network Consortium (LALINC). LALINC is a cooperative lending program between the public university libraries in the state of Louisiana. Member libraries of LALINC offer certain classes of patrons, usually faculty, staff and graduate students, LALINC CALL cards. Recipients who present these cards along with university ID, and sometimes other requirements, at other member libraries, may be issued an account to allow book borrowing privileges at that institution. LALINC cards expire at the end of each semester.
