Question

I need a book for the whole semester, why do I have to renew it?

Last updated: Jun 09, 2026    4159 views

Library books are made available to all Federation staff and students. We have loan periods for books to make sure that everyone has fair access to our resources. If nobody has a hold on the book you want, and you do not have overdue items, your book will automatically be renewed up to twenty times before you have to return it.

Exceptions to automatic renewals include laptops and equipment. More information can be found in the FAQ: How many items can I borrow?

If the book is required for one of your subjects and you will need constant access to it, you should consider purchasing your own copy from the University Bookshop.
