A "proxy borrower" is an individual who has been designated by a faculty member to borrow library materials for that faculty member, and with whom the HKS and other Harvard Libraries can discuss details of the faculty member's account. Library materials can include both print and electronic resources. Faculty members can sponsor up to five active library proxies.
To designate a proxy borrower, the sponsoring faculty member must complete an application online.
To request print materials for pickup, either the faculty member or proxy borrower can log into HOLLIS and place a request for materials. The request will be made on behalf of the faculty member, for the proxy borrower to pick up. Whoever placed the request will receive an email that the materials are ready for pickup, at which point the proxy borrower can visit the pickup library and specify that they are picking up materials on behalf of a faculty member.
