Books on Interlibrary Library Loan (ILL): The borrowing period is determined by the library that owns the book. It is important to return items on time because the book does not belong to KU. Click here to go to the Interlibrary Loan tab. Students can have up to 15 interlibrary loan books out at once. Fees for lost Interlibrary Loan books are determined by the library that owned the book.
Overdue Fines: None. If items are not returned thirty days after the Due Date, you receive a notice that your records have been sealed until the items are returned. If your records are sealed, it means you cannot register for classes.
Fees for lost items: Standard fee for the type of item borrowed; no processing fee; borrowing privileges suspended indefinitely when the patron owes fees for lost items. Items that have been declared “Lost” in the circulation system need to be returned to the library and discharged. The items may then be charged out to the patron again if asked.
