Loan Periods and Borrowing Limits

IUPUI University Library welcomes all users to explore our collection and borrow materials. Borrowing privileges and lending periods vary according to the status of the user, but the use of a valid borrower's card to check out materials implies agreement by the borrower to abide by the assigned due dates and to return the materials in good order.

We ask that users remember that borrowing materials from the IUPUI University Library is considered a privilege rather than a right, and that failure to honor the conditions for borrowing may result in fines and/or the loss of borrowing privileges.  

For specific information, please choose the appropriate status below.  To see a list of unique items available to borrow, please see the chart at the bottom of the page.
