(1) In the use of library materials, the Marian Gould Gallagher Law Library serves the students, faculty, and staff of the law school, the students, faculty, and staff of other university departments, faculty of other colleges and universities, librarians of other libraries, judges, members of the Washington bar and persons who have a degree from the law school. The law librarian has discretion to specify other groups of patrons and to set priorities of use among all groups of patrons. However, University of Washington law school faculty and law school students have priority when other patrons need the same materials. The law librarian also has discretion to establish restrictions specific to particular library materials or a single library item.

(2) Circulation regulations may differ according to type of material and usage.

(3) Because of the reference nature of some of the collection, some materials do not circulate and must be used in the library. The law librarian shall define the phrase "in the library."

(4) Each borrower is responsible for materials he or she checks out at the circulation desk.
