Where
To check out a book, bring it to the Circulation Desk of the library where you found the book. You will need a valid MCard to check out books.

How Long
The loan period varies from library to library. The UGL loan period is three weeks for everyone. The Graduate Library and the Art, Architecture Library loan period is 3 weeks for undergraduates and 8 weeks for graduate students and faculty.

Return or Renew
The Circulation Desk is also the place to renew or return books. You can also renew books through Mirlyn's My Account page (see next page).

Library to Library Delivery
Books may be requested to be delivered to another Ann Arbor Campus library via Mirlyn. For example, a book at the Undergraduate Library that is currently available, may be delivered to the AAEL for borrowing. This is done by logging into Mirlyn, searching and finding the book and in the full record listing for that book, clicking on the Get This link.

Recall Item
If the book you want is checked out, you can ensure that you will be next in line to get it. You can submit a recall in Mirlyn the same way as a Library to Library request. The amount of time it will take to receive the item will depend on how long the item has been checked out and how many other people are in line for it. You will get an email when the book has become available.
