Recalls

All items with a longer than two-week loan period are subject to RECALL. If an item is RECALLED you will be sent an email, with a new due date for the item (one week). Recalls that are returned late have a $2 per day fine. 

Renewing Materials

Materials can be renewed up to four times; however, if there is a hold on an item, items are not renewable and need to be returned.

Methods for Renewals

 

  • Log into your account and renew items on the "Checkouts" tab
  • Bring your King’s ID card to the Service Desk during library hours
  • Email: library@kingsu.ca  Please use our King's email so we can find your account. You need to include the information about the item you would like to be renewed, title, author and barcode number. 

Email Notification

Email notifications are sent about available holds, due dates, and overdue fines. If holds are not picked up within five days, they are returned to the owning library or the shelves. 

Email notifications are sent to your King's email address. You are responsible for checking this email account.

Computers

The library has a computer room with computers for students to use. They have the same software as the computers in the campus lab. 

You are able to use these computers by logging in with your King's email/login. You are able to save and print to the machine in the library or other machines on campus. 

It is located beside the Curriculum collection room. We ask you to be respectful and refrain from eating and ensure that you keep a lid on any beverages.
