Policy Statement:
Policy: All CSU+ items will be loaned for 60 days.
- This includes books, media items, etc.
Additional Rationale:
- Providing a standardized and consistent policy and loan period to all CSU patrons, regardless of which CSU library is supplying the material would also reduce reduces confusion for library users and staff.
- Without a standardized loan period a patron could check out two CSU+ books at the same time but have different due dates assigned for each book depending on who supplied the book.The recommended loan periods are 60 days for books, 30 days for media. For different reasons some libraries would prefer longer loan periods (90 days or even the entire semester for books) while other libraries would prefer shorter loan periods (30 days for books). Therefore, 60 day loans for books is a compromise that should be suitable for all members, even campuses that are on quarters.
