 2. The library implements the fine-paying regulation. Please pay attention to the loan quotas and loan periods and make sure to return books on time, otherwise, an overdue fine 0.1RMB/day will be charged. If the book is due for return during the winter vacation, summer vacation or the period when the reader goes out during the internship, the reader is supposed to return items within the first week after the new term.

 3. Renewal requests can be given by presenting your campus card at the circulation desk in the library. Readers may also renew book online by using My Library option of the library integrated system. Please remember each item can only be renewed once.

 4. Readers can make online reservations for books that have been borrowed but have not been returned by due date, but readers cannot reserve books that are still in the library. Mutual reservation can be made for Qishan campus library and Run Run Shaw Library, and readers should go to the reserved library to pick up the book.
