It usually takes at least 7-10 days to fill an ILL request. Patrons who need renewals on books obtained through Interlibrary Loan are asked to request the renewal three to five days ahead of the original due date. We do not ask for renewals on overdue items and only one renewal is asked for. A renewed book, including mail time, could be away from the owning library for two months or more. If the patron needs it for a longer period of time, a second request should be submitted and the item obtained from another library.
Fines are fifty cents per day for the first and second day the item is overdue.
A one dollar per day charge takes effect on the third day after the due date. Other, local charges may also apply. The Interlibrary Loan Department reserves the right to suspend ILL privileges and place holds on academic records until all charges have been paid. In addition to borrowing items from other libraries for our patrons, we will make every effort to provide other libraries with the items they need. Approval for a loan of this type must be obtained from the head of the respective departments.
