Library Returns
When are Library materials due?
Please return library materials by the end of the semester. If materials are not returned by the last day of the semester, this may impede your ability to get in the queue for hold requests on materials for the next semester.
Semester-length loans: how to plan ahead
Semester-length loans (textbooks, calculators, laptops, hotspots) are due back by the last day of the semester during which they are borrowed. They cannot be renewed for the next semester.
If you want to use the materials for the next semester, you must return your current materials. After you return them, you can place a hold request for the materials up to one week before the first day of the new semester.
Semester-length loans can be picked up starting the first day of the semester; if you have placed anything on hold it will be held for one week.
More information about how to place a hold request is available on the "Placing Holds for Pickup" section of this LibGuide.
How do I return Library materials?
You can return Library books by using the Library Book Drop in Parking Lot M or the book drop attached to the library building. Scroll down this page to learn more about where to locate these book drops. Laptops and hotspots must be returned in-person to the Online Student Support Desk on the first floor of the Library.
