... for book orders
Books you have ordered through interlibrary loan are generally lent to you for four weeks, with the possibility of an extension by additional four weeks, until recalled. The loan periods for interlibrary loan books comply with the lending conditions of the respective holding library. If this assigns a different, shorter loan period, it is passed on to you accordingly.
Please ensure the timely return or loan period extension of your borrowed interlibrary loan books – otherwise you risk a media reclaim procedure with charges. From 13 July onwards, we will return to reclaim overdue interlibrary loans for a fee.
Previous appointment for returns: Due to the Corona pandemic, unannounced library visits are not possible. Please arrange an individual appointment for returning interlibrary loans.
