What is a recall?
If someone requests an item you have on loan, you’ll receive a recall notice via email, and the due date will be shortened.
What do I need to do?
- Check the recall notice as your due date for the item has been reduced
- Return the recalled item, the new due date is indicated on the recall notice
- Consider recalls if you have items on loan and you plan to be away for any length of time
Return the item to the library and then place a request for the item if you require the title again.
Why do we have recalls?
Recalls help to provide all clients with fair access to resources. Loan periods for low demand (General) items are generous and will be automatically adjusted according to user demand via the recall system. This means that if others require an item you have on loan, your loan and all subsequent loan periods will be reduced to 7 days until all requests are satisfied.
