EWU Summit Services

EWU Library Extended Summit Services:

To meet the needs of our current EWU Spokane and Bellevue-based students, faculty and staff, whether you are a EWU online only student and/or are 25 miles or more outside of the Spokane/Cheney area (i.e. Bellevue College), mail delivery options to either: home address, SIERR, or Catalyst-Health Sciences Building may be an option.  See Extended Summit criteria below:

If you are a currently enrolled EWU student or an active EWU Faculty/Staff member who is either:

• EWU Distance Education (Located outside the Cheney/Spokane area)
• EWU-Spokane-based; and/or
• EWU Online only
• EWU-Bellevue-based

*When requesting items to be mail-to-home, please leave a comment in the notes field that this is a service you need (i.e. mail-to-home or distance education). As soon as your mailing address has been verified and other extended summit services criteria have been met, we can then process your request*

EWU Students - Mail-to-Home Option

While we are happy to accommodate you in this way, there is a limitation in how many items we can send in one quarter. We can send 4 items, per person per quarter to your home address once you have verified your mailing address with the Expanded Summit Services office.

Just a few quick notes regarding returns, due dates and possible renewals…

• Returns: When you are ready to return your item(s) either on or before your due date, please contact the Expanded Summit Services office to have a Fed Ex return label emailed to you to complete the return process. All notifications are sent to your ewu.edu email, so be sure to keep an eye out for any messages.

• Due Dates: Please keep an eye on your due dates for items you’ve requested; it is your responsibility to renew/return when necessary. While this service is free to use, any items marked lost, damaged, and/or missing are subject to a fine. You can keep track of your due dates by logging into your library account (https://www.ewu.edu/library/).

• Renewals: There is a 12-week checkout with an option for one 6-week renewal (unless the item has been recalled by the lending library) for each item. You can renew Summit/EWU item(s) via your library account: EWU Library Home Page-Account Login; however, it’s suggested to wait to renew until a few days before the actual due date, this way you don’t lose any additional check out time.

If you have any questions, you can email the EWU Library Expanded Summit Service Office at summit@ewu.edu or call 509-359-2819.
