A "Recall" of library materials is when a borrower's loan is shortened because it is needed elsewhere, and there are no other available copies
A recall changes the due date to either
14 days from date of recall; or
The remainder of the current loan, whichever is shorter
Recalled items cannot be renewed, and accrue overdue fines at an accelerated rate
Any item can be recalled at any time
The library system sends out automated courtesy notices for recalled items
All automatic communications from the system are sent as a courtesy. Failure to read the notice does not excuse late returns
Borrowers can always check the status of their loans using the My Account section of the library catalog, and consulting the "Items borrowed / renewals" section
When there is more than one copy of an item in use, the copy that has been on loan longest is recalled first
