Library users may take out Books and Visual Media (DVDs, CDs, slides, audiocassettes etc.) materials for use outside of the library.

As a general rule, a maximum of 10 items can be charged out at one time.

However, due to high demand and limited resources in particular subject areas of the collection, it may be necessary to limit borrowing to 3 items on any one subject.
