CRIARL is a consortium of 21 academic and research libraries. Member libraries vary considerably in terms of mission, collection scope and size, staff size, and governance. With presentation of a CRIARL card, faculty and staff of member institutions have visiting and borrowing privileges at member libraries. CRIARL cards are issued for a specified period and may be renewed at the issuing library. Items borrowed from member libraries are subject to the circulation rules of the lender. Individual failure to abide by the rules of the lending library may result in revocation of borrowing privileges.
