When are my books due?
For most circulating materials (items you can check out), there is one due date at the beginning of each quarter. Therefore, if you check out a book during Fall Quarter, it will be due the beginning of Winter Quarter. Should you wish to extend the loan, you must renew your books.
Some materials, however, have different loan periods.
- Reserve
materials can only be checked out for her two, four, or twenty-four hours--depending
on the item. Check the reserve catalog record to see how long you can borrow
the item and please carefully review your charge slip.
- If an item is recalled, the current
user will receive a notice from the Library with a new due date. Please note
that materials can be recalled at any time and returning items late will result
in heavy fines.
- Items from the Recordings
Collection can only be borrowed for 28 days.
- Interlibrary Loan materials or those borrowed from affiliated institutions will also be subject to shorter loan periods.
The length of time you can borrow materials may also depend on your privileges. Faculty have indefinite borrowing privileges and do not need to renew materials. Alumni and users from institutions with reciprocal borrowing privileges will be subject to shorter loan periods. Check with the ID & Privileges Office for more information.
