When an item is requested by another reader, a notice is sent to the current borrower asking to return the item within one week.

After a borrowing period of six months, an automatic notice is sent to the borrower requesting the return of the item at the end of the maximum loan period.

Review of Graduate Papers Before Submission to the Graduate Papers Deposit Unit

Graduate students, after completing the thesis defense or doctoral evaluation (and after making any required corrections), are asked to send the final file of their work to the director of Music Library before submitting it to the Graduate Papers Deposit Unit.
The review focuses on the submission format according to the guidelines published on the Libraries and Information Division website, in coordination with the Graduate School, and not on the content of the work.
Checking the paper before its final submission to the Graduate Papers Deposit Unit helps prevent unnecessary complications for the student.

CRIS (Current Research Information System)
CRIS is a modular system for managing information in academic institutions in Israel and worldwide. The system provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of faculty and researcher profiles within the institution. It also stores an extensive database of research outputs they have published, academic activities they have participated in, grants received throughout their research years, and more.

The Library Director supports department faculty members and advises them on maintaining their personal profiles in the CRIS system.
