Demand is high and most loan periods are short. You may be able to borrow an item again immediately if no one is waiting for it.
Return course reserve items to the Ask Us desk before their loan period ends. If the library is closed, you can put them in the book return. They won't be counted as returned until the library checks them in.
If you fail to return a reserve item, you will be billed for its replacement ($45-$100 depending on the item).
