About Recalls

  • A "Recall" of library materials is when a borrower's loan is shortened because it is needed elsewhere
  • Depending on your prior due date, a Recall may dramatically shorten your time with an item
  • Recalled items cannot be renewed, and accrue overdue fines at an accelerated rate
  • Any item can be recalled at any time
  • The library system sends out automated notices for Recalled items
    • Automatic communications from the system are sent as a courtesy.  Failure to receive or read the notice does not excuse late returns
  • You can always check loan due dates using the "My Account" or "My Library Card" section of your university's library catalog
