"*"Patients and families may only borrow consumer health books.

Renewals

  • Items may be renewed online or by phone.
  • Items do not need to be present to request renewal.
  • Renewals will be granted unless there is a hold on the item.

Holds

  • Items already checked out may be recalled from other users by placing a hold.
  • Notification via email will be sent to the requester when a recalled item is available.
  • The recalled item will be held for 3 business days before it is returned to the collection.

Returns

  • Return books to a book drop, located across from the elevators on Level 3 of Wittson Hall or on Level 6 of the library.
  • Return non-book items through an appointment with AskUs Desk staff.

Overdue Items

  • A courtesy reminder will be sent via email for overdue items.

Replacement of Lost Items

  • Replacement procedures will begin after items have been overdue for 7 days for models and 30 days for books.
  • Charges for the full replacement cost of the item, plus a processing fee, will be assessed.

Payment of Library Fees

Library fees are paid online:

  • Users with unpaid library fees will not be allowed to check out library materials.
  • For unpaid fees, the library will contact the UNMC Registrar to place student accounts on hold.
While accounts are on hold, students will be unable to:
  • Register for classes,
  • Request transcripts,
  • Access records on the student website, or
  • Request any type of enrollment verification.
