Most items are available for loan for a two-month loan period, known as standard loan.
More heavily used items are restricted to two-week loans or two-day loans.
Two-week and two-day loans are identified by blue and red spots on the book spine while standard loans have the shelf mark only.
The table below lists how many items can be borrowed from each loan type, by category of student or other library user.
All Library material on loan may be recalled at any time which may require the return of an item sooner than the original due date.
Items on loan can be returned to any campus library.
