The final due date for all items checked out to, or renewed, by students will be the last day of final exams in each semester or term. This limit can be waived for students working on theses or Capstone projects, if they submit a written request approved by their supervising faculty members to the Circulation Desk.
Standard periods of loan shall be determined by the University. Any item, class, or group of items such as Reserve items may be confined to the library or issued for a limited period at the discretion of the Library Director.

Renewing Materials

Patrons may renew books two (2) times unless a Hold has been placed by another patron. The length of loan remains the same for any subsequent renewals. Patrons can now renew checked out library books at any time before the due date through My Millennium account. Following the second renewal, patrons must return the item(s) to the Circulation Desk.
All renewals are performed by the patron within their My Millennium account. Patrons are urged either to visit, or contact the Reference Desk for issues regarding malfunction in the renewal process. Renewals cannot be requested by phone or email, regardless of urgency or need.
Renewals will be blocked if borrowing privileges have been suspended for any unpaid fines. Similarly, an item that is currently overdue cannot be renewed, and must be returned to the Circulation Desk

Placing Items on Hold

A patron may place a Hold on any item that is currently checked out. That item will be recalled from the current borrower and held for the requester at the Circulation Desk for three (3) days. The requester is informed by email when the item becomes available.
All Renewals are performed by the patron within their My Millennium account. Patrons are urged either to visit or contact the Reference Desk for issues regarding malfunction in the Hold process. Holds cannot be requested by phone or email, regardless of urgency or need.

Fines for Overdue Items

Overdue fines for books returned after their due date are charged 10 MAD per day up to a maximum of 280 MAD (i.e. 28 days late), after which the item is regarded as lost.
Overdue fines for headphones returned after their due time are charged 10 MAD per hour up to a maximum of 240 MAD (i.e. 24 hours late).
NB: Borrowing rights for all library items are suspended until late fees are paid
