Library Rules | TED University

Current members of TED University (registered students, academic and administrative staff) become natural members of the library after they received the identity card provided by the University.
Public users can use library materials and services only within the library building, but cannot become members of the library and cannot borrow the materials.

Membership

Students are required to obtain a certificate of severance from the library clearing them of any debt to the library in case of graduation, dropping out of school, cancellation of studentship, etc. Otherwise, students cannot get their diplomas or related documents. Students who owe the library can obtain the certificate of severance only if they pay their debts.
Academic and administrative staff who retire or resign or take a temporary leave from the university for a period of time are required to return borrowed library materials and obtain a certificate of severance from the library. Otherwise, their leave procedures cannot be completed by the Human Resources department.
