Guidelines & Policies

  • All users must present a valid GUST ID card to borrow or renew any library item.
  • All items are checked out on a first come, first serve basis.
  • All users are responsible for all items checked out under their GUST ID.
  • All users are responsible for the return of all items to the Library’s Information Desk.
  • The due date/time is the date/time by which an item must be returned or renewed.
  • Items that have reached their renewal limit must also be returned on or before their due date.
  • If the item you want is currently checked out, you can (usually) place a request to "hold" it. That item then gets "recalled," and the other user must return it within 3 days.
  • Users are notified by email if their item is recalled. Users are not able to renew recalled items.
  • Users may check their circulation status online by using the Library's online catalog at https://gust.portal.medad.com or by contacting the Library.
  • Borrowing privileges vary depending on the user category and item type. For more information, please visit Loan and Fine Policies.
