Holds and intercampus requests Members can reserve an item that is out on loan, or request an item from another campus by placing a hold on it using the online catalogue. Please note that holds placed by current Swinburne staff and students always have priority. Recall The library reserves the right to recall any item on loan before the normal loan period has expired. Penalties Loans are issued subject to the imposition of penalties for late return and non-return of items. When an item falls overdue, borrowing privileges are suspended at all campuses.
Fine rates vary depending on the loan period of the item.
Items lost or damaged while on loan to a registered Borrower must be reported to the Library. Continued failure to return items on time or to pay fines may result in the cancellation of membership. Power to Alter Conditions One or more of the above conditions may be changed from time to time by the Swinburne Librarian. Consultancies can be organised in person, or by phone, fax or email. Interstate queries are welcome.
