UO Libraries Proxy Program

The University of Oregon Libraries allows UO Faculty, as well as any UO Libraries patrons requiring accessibility assistance to designate one proxy. A proxy is a person who can check out Library materials on your behalf. 

How to sign up:

  1. Complete and submit our proxy application form. Copies are available circulation desk at any of the UO Libraries Locations, or you print a copy of our form to fill out:

    Print a PDF Copy of the form

  2. Your proxy presents the signed form and a photo ID at the circulation desk at any of the UO Libraries Locations, and Library staff will complete the request.

Guidelines and important details:

  • The individual's proxy status will expire after one year, or your designated expiry date, whichever comes first.
  • You are authorizing that person to check out material using your library account. You are responsible for replacement costs, service charges, and overdue fines that accrue for material checked out on your account by your proxy. 
  • Do not share your account password with anyone. Proxies should never have access to your DuckID password, nor does their proxy status grant remote access to UO Libraries' electronic resources. 
  • If you want to cease access for the proxy before the desired expiration date, please contact Access and Delivery Services as soon as possible to have them removed from your account at libhelp@uoregon.libanswers.com or 541-346-3065.
