How to BorrowTake your card and the items to be borrowed to the Loans Desk for checkout. You must present your University of Melbourne card when you borrow items. It is also needed if you want to renew your loans. Library materials are security tagged and must be passed to you by a staff member before they are taken from the library. The loan period for most books is 28 days. Many items (with the exception of those in high demand, on hold, or overdue) can have their due date renewed. More information about Renewals. A coloured band wrapped around the cover of an item indicates that it has a shorter loan period applies. Yellow band = Overnight non renewable loan Items from the Reference and Journal collections are not for loan. HoldsIf you want to borrow a Burnley item which is out on loan, you can place your own hold via the Library catalogue or library staff can place a hold for you. Material held in at other libraries can be obtained via inter-campus loan.

ReturnsDuring library hours items can be returned through the chute in the library foyer. When the library is closed, items can be returned via the after hours return chute. This located outside the front of the building, to the right of the foyer entrance doors. Fines and PenaltiesFines apply to all library materials that are returned late. The rate of fines varies according to the loan period of the items concerned - shorter loan periods attract fines at a faster rate, as the items are in heavier demand. Your borrowing privileges are suspended while you have overdue material. Fines are not payable until the total owed on your record reaches or exceeds $15.00. Once $15.00 is reached, all fine amounts accrued are payable. Once paid, and your record cleared, the library will offer you another $15 credit. The rolling credit is offered as a goodwill gesture, and should assist those who do not consistently return items late. Please note that at the Burnley Library we only have the facilities to accept fine payment via cash or cheque. Further details of Melbourne University Library Fines and Penalties. Inter-Campus LoansItems can be obtained from other University of Melbourne Libraries free of charge.
