Q. I urgently need an item already checked out by someone else. How can I access that item?

Recall is a request, sent from the library circulation department, to return an item before it is due. Students, faculty and staff may recall items by placing a request in person at the Library Services desk (map).

• Recall requests can be placed 14 days after the original checkout date.
• A recall notice is sent to the patron who currently has the item checked out (usually via email).
• Recalled items that are not returned by the date specified in the notice will accrue daily fines.
• A notice to the patron requesting the recall is sent when the item is returned.
• Items returned will be held for 7 days.
