Borrow, Renew, Request

Penryn students 

Check your local library account here.  All Penryn loans are borrowed for one week but will renew automatically, one week at a time, for a year. All loans are subject to recall.

This means you can generally keep items for as long as you need them, but please do bring items back if they are not renewed - someone else is waiting!  Note that you will be charged a daily fine for late return of items requested by another user, and replacement costs for non-return of items.
