Background
A semester term-long loan period facilitates the needs of students who require library materials for research and study.
...
- All campuses having a standardized loan period avoids confusion for library users
- Eliminates need for frequent renewals and problems resulting from unsuccessful renewal attempts
- Checked out items can be requested through CSU+ where patrons will likely receive items faster than if they place a hold or recall on locally owned materials
For those campuses with more generous loan periods, we are not recommending you shorten loan periods to coincide with this policy.
...
For all students (both undergraduate and graduate), set the following loan periods for all regular circulating main stack items:
- For Campuses on Semester System: 16 week minimum total checkout (8 weeks with 1 auto renewal)checkout
- For Campuses on Quarter System: 12 week minimum total checkout (6 weeks with 1 auto renewal)checkout
