Circulation Rules

1. Each person can borrow up to 10 books.
2. Loan Period: 30 days; can renew each item once, or, in the case of NTU Library, renew limitless times with a maximum loan period of 60 days; cannot reserve books.
3. Which items are available for borrowing is decided by the lending libraries.
4. Late return and lost items: patrons should follow the regulations set by the lending libraries, and go to said libraries to pay the overdue fines or replace the lost items. Only when these processes are completed can said patrons regain their borrowing privileges.
5. Patrons cannot go on leaves of absence or leave school if they have not returned all books and paid all overdue fines.
