SERVICES > BORROW, RENEW & REQUEST Borrow, Renew and Request Paging and Recall Users who have a need for material currently charged out can place either a hold or a recall against the charged item. Holds do not truncate the existing due date. Once the material is returned, the requesting user will be notified and a hold placed on the item for 7 days after which it will be re-shelved or circulated to the next waiting user. Library material which circulates for a loan period longer than 14 days is subject to recall. Recalled items must be returned immediately if needed for course reserves or within 7 days of the recall notice, if needed for another borrower. A recalled item is assigned a new due date which supersedes the most recent due date for the item. Recalled items not returned by the new due date will begin accruing recall overdue fines of $3.00/day. Recalled materials must be returned directly to the Loan Desk of the owning library. Users whose need for the material is very brief, e.g. to verify a citation or check a reference, may be able to meet their need without either a hold or recall; see the section called Disclosure
of Borrower Information.
