Borrowing terms and conditions
Registration
To borrow documents you need subscription.

If you give back your borrowed documents behind schedule in one of the library of the network, you will be suspended of borrowing. The period of suspension is equal to the number of days delay.

The shuttle: give back your borrowed documents in the library of your choice
A book shuttle service for the returns works between the network institutions
Borrow in the library which has the document you want, give it back in the library near to you, we take care of the documents return.
Interlibrary loan : borrow a document which is not in the Toulouse network
You didn’t find a copy available in Archipel? The SUDOC lists all the university libraries in France: if the document you are searching for is available elsewhere, make a request at the PEB service (Inter-library loan).
Document borrowing during the closure
Bib’INSA gives you the opportunity to borrow documents during the summer closure: these are the summer borrowing. They begin in mid-June.
For more information, please ask to the library staff.
Periodicals borrowing
Periodicals can be borrowed and the daily newspapers.
Borrowing extension
You can extend once your borrowing, before the return deadline. The extension can be made by different ways:
- Going to the library
- Calling at the 05.61.55.95.63
- Sending an email at bibinsa @ insa-toulouse.fr, specifying your surname, name and login details (N°INE or bar code)
- Logging in on Archipel from the library website or from the ENT (Bib’INSA tab). Click on “My account”, log in and then click on “Emprunts” / “Borrow” to renew the books you want
Week-end borrowing
Some books can be borrowed for the week-end from the Friday at 12am to the Monday at 2pm.
They are notified with “prêt week-end”
Exeat
What is an exeat ?
An exeat is an official document which attests that you are in order with the libraries of the Toulouse university library network (no non-returned document, no money debt to the library …)
If you are not in a good standing with one of the institutions, a diploma delivery or its certificate or the transfer to another higher education institution is compromised.
As it certifies that you have given back all the borrowed documents, its delivery closes your registration to the Toulouse University library network for the current year.
How to ask for an exeat ?
Go to the lending bank of the INSA library with your student card.
Give back wherever you want
Now, you can give back your borrowed documents in the university library of your choice thanks to the shuttle library service.
The shuttle serves the libraries of UT1, UT2, UPS, INSA, ISAE, ENAC, INP, IFC and the Ecole des Mines in Albi.
