Renewals
Most loan periods are 7 days. However, students, alumni, faculty and staff are able to renew currently loaned materials provided there is not a current waitlist on the material. In order to renew, they can email, telephone or make an in-person visit to the libraries. Renewal periods are also in 7 day increments.
Overdue Materials
Any materials held over their period of loan – without renewals – are considered overdue. Overdue materials may incur a fine of up to $0.25 per day up to the value of the materials borrowed.
All patrons in possession of excessively overdue materials will be referred to the College Registrar.
