      • PhD degree candidates who have an approved and signed prospectus and who are working on a dissertation.

    • Baldwin Carrels:
      • PhD degree candidates who have completed course work and language exams.
      • DLitt and DMH degree candidates who have completed course work

  • After October 15th of each year, available Baldwin carrels may be assigned to other doctoral students. Eligible students will receive priority in the following order:
    • PhD students whot have not yet completed course work and language exams
    • DLitt and DMH students who have not yet completed course work.

  • After December 15th each year, remaining available Baldwin carrels may be assigned to other Caspersen and Theological School students pursuing graduate degrees in the following order for priority:
    • DMin/MA/MMH/Mlitt students.
    • All other graduate students

  • The assigned term for carrels is dependent upon academic status:
    • PhD degree candidates who have completed course work and language exams may have a carrel for a period of three years or for several periods of time that add up to 36 months.
    • DLitt and DMH degree candidates who have completed course work may have a carrel for a one-and-one-half-year period or for periods of time that add up to 18 months.
    • Students in other Caspersen or Theological School degree programs may have a carrel for one year or for periods of time that add up to 12 months. There are no renewals.
    • The assignment periods for PhD, DLitt, and DMH candidates The three-year and one-and-one-half year periods apply to any COMBINED use of Baldwin and E-Level Closet Carrels. Therefore, the maximum length of time that any doctoral candidate may have an assigned carrel is three or one and one-half years, depending on the degree being pursued. There are no renewals.
    • Students completing a master's level program and entering a doctoral program may reapply under their new student status.
    • Short-term assignments (for one week to two months) may be made to PhD, DLitt, and DMH degree candidates who live outside the tri-state area, who qualify for a Baldwin or Closet carrel, and who are only on campus for a short period of time.
  • Drew staff or faculty members (even if they are also students) are not eligible for carrel assignments.  A minimum of eight carrels will be available for use by all students as Day Carrels.  Baldwin Carrels will be used for this purpose; unassigned E-Level Closet Carrels may also be used as Day Carrels.
  • The minimum usage requirement for Baldwin and E-Level Closet Carrels is 85 hours per month in September, October, February, and April. The minimum usage requirement is reduced in other months as follows: November = 70   December = 45  March and May = 55. Usage requirements are waived for January term, spring break, and the months of June, July, and August.
  • Assignees agree to sign in when using their carrel and sign out when leaving the carrel; the log book is at the Circulation Counter.
  • Carrel assignments will be withdrawn from any assignee who does not meet the minimum usage requirements six times (whether in consecutive months or not) or who does not use their assigned carrel for three months in a row.
  • Assignments are for individual use. Carrels may be used only by the assignee. Carrels are not designed as offices or conference rooms and are not to be used as such.
  • Remove recyclables and trash from your carrel space daily and place in designated receptacles. Maintain reasonable cleanliness.
  • $75.00 will be charged if the key to a Closet Carrel is lost; this charge covers the cost of re-keying the lock. The replacement charge for a lost or damaged drawer key is $25.00. A $50.00 lamp replacement fee will be assessed if the Library-owned lamp provided in each E-Level Closet carrel is removed by the assignee. Other fees may be assessed if a carrel is damaged by an assignee beyond normal wear and tear; such fees will be determined by the Facilities Department when the Carrel Coordinator requests a repair estimate.
  • A carrel not vacated within 2 weeks of written notification will be cleared of all materials. Items not picked up after 30 days will be donated to charity. A $25.00 fee will be assessed to any assignee who does not completely clear a carrel when his/her assignment ends (whether the assignee voluntarily leaves or whether the assignment is withdrawn).
