Members of Murdoch Alumni Association are encouraged to continue their association with the University through free membership of the Library. Membership allows you to borrow books, use the Library's collections, and access the Proquest database either on campus or from home. Membership needs to be renewed each year.
Step 1. Complete an Application for Alumni Library Membership form.
Step 2. The library will then activate your membership. You should allow two working days for this process to be completed.
Step 3. You will be notified once membership processing has been done and provided with your Library User ID which is a 14 digit number.
To renew your membership, contact the Enquiry and Loans desk in person, by email or by phone.
For further information please contact the Library loans@murdoch.edu.au or telephone 61 (8) 9360 2563.
To borrow library resources you will need your Library ID card. For fast loans use the Self Check machine. If you need assistance, take your books to the Loans Desk. As an Alumni you may borrow up to 8 items for 4 weeks unless recalled.
You can renew your loans by logging on to My Library. Items can be renewed only once.
Most items borrowed are subject to recall to allow everyone access to library collections. You will be notified by email if an item is recalled and you will have 7 days to return it.
You may recall up to 5 items at any one time. To recall an item:
You are able to request items that are available (status 'check shelf') at another campus to be picked up at any branch library by requesting the item through the catalogue, in the same way you recall an item from another borrower. You may not request items to be picked up at another branch library on the same campus. For example, you cannot request an item from Vet to be picked up at Main or CRC.
Books can also be returned at any of the Campus Libraries.

If you accrue 200 or more penalty points in an academic year, your borrowing rights will be suspended until you pay a fine of $20.00. After payment your points are reset to zero. After a second fine in an academic year your points will be reset to 100 and after a further fine to 190. Penalty points are reset to zero every year if they remain below 200. Recurrent penalty point fines may involve suspension of your borrowing rights. Reinstatement of borrowing rights from repeat offences is at the discretion of the University Librarian.
The Library uses the Monitor Copy system for payment of all photocopying and printing charges. Payment is made using a plastic card with a magnetic strip on the reverse side.
Credit may be added to your photocopy account using an Autoloader. Autoloaders are located in the main library Learning Common North Wing 3 and Learning Common North Wing 2, Veterinary Studies Library and Rockingham Campus Library.
