    ii. Maximum renewal is 3 times for above items.(Except for External Users)

    iii. Academic staff are eligible to borrow course reserves if there are more than one copy in the Library

  4. On special occasions such as when the Library needs to carry out an inventory check, all loans may be recalled and it must then be returned on or before the new due date. Late return will be treated as an overdue and is liable to an overdue administrative charge.
  5. Overdue administrative charge: Borrowers are responsible to return their loans on or before the due date. The overdue administrative charge is counted at MOP10.00 per item per day.
  6. The maximum overdue charge is MOP500 per loan. Thereafter if a loan is still not returned, they will be regarded as lost and an additional charge equivalent to the cost of the replacement of the book plus the processing costs will be claimed. Thus, the total amount of the extra administrative charge for the mentioned case would be MOP500 plus two times of the item price.
  7. Return items will not be accepted for waiving or reducing overdue administrative charges after the lost claim notices are issued.
  8. Overdue notice: Attempts will be made to send overdue notices to borrowers as soon as possible. All Library notices are e-mailed to users with IFTM email accounts. Non-receipt of such notices will not be accepted as an excuse for waiving or reducing overdue administrative charges for overdue loans.
  9. All administrative charges shall be paid via the campus Kiosk using MACAUpass or at the Administrative and Financial Support Division.
  10. At the end of the loan period, a user may ask for a renewal of the period for the same length of time as before. Renewal will not be authorized to overdue items or if another user has made a prior request to borrow the same material. Users can arrange the renewal through the library’s Webpac (Web Public Access Catalogue) or they may bring their renewal items to the Information Desk to arrange for renewal.
  11. Users may reserve any borrowed items through the Webpac or at the Information Desk. Upon receiving the return loan, the user will be informed of the availability by e-mail.
  12. Users are forbidden to lend material to a third party.
  13. Interlibrary loan service can be applied at the Information Desk in the Library.
