Contengint Employees
- To gain access to Gitenstein’s print collection, have your hiring manager email access servivces at circ@tcnj.edu
- We will then create a library account for the employee so they may check out books. They may also use our guest computers in the Reference Room to access electronic databases.
- In order for us to create the account, we need the following information?:
- Home address and phone number, campus address and phone number, TCNJ email, employee ID (six digits), and finally, expiration date.
- After we create the record, the contingent employee will need to come to the library access services desk on the first floor at the entrance, and present their TCNJ ID. That will have their library barcode on it and we will put that also in the system and she will be good to go.
- We cannot give off-site access to electronic resources like databases.
