Longer loan periods because of the closure

Because the library is closed for a longer time, we are giving longer loan periods for books until Aug 12, 2026.

  • The loan period for 4-week loans will be extended starting May 21
  • The loan period for 2-week loans (textbooks) will be extended starting June 4

Please check the due dates of your loans and don’t forget to renew your loans before the library closes. There are no due dates during the time library is closed.  SEAMK staff’s loans will be automatically renewed by the system unless there are no requests on them.
