The end of term is approaching and that means our vacation loans will shortly be starting.

Vacation loans will begin on Monday 27 November (Monday of 8th week of Michaelmas Term).

Any items borrowed on or after this date will be assigned a due date of Tuesday 16 January (Tuesday of 1st week of Hilary Term 2024)

Please note for items currently on loan to you, borrowed before Monday 27 November:

• Any items you have on loan which were originally borrowed between Monday 7 August 2023 and Sunday 26 November 2023, which are not already overdue and not requested by another reader, will automatically renew until Tuesday 16 January
• Any items you borrowed before Monday 7 August will reach the maximum renewal period before the start of the vacation and so will not be eligible for automatic renewal over the vacation; these items should be returned before Monday 27 November, and re-borrowed if you wish to keep them

Important exception to Vacation Loans

Items ordered up from Bodleian Offsite Storage that you were able to take out of the library, are not subject to vacation loans – they will auto-renew on the same pattern as they have been throughout term-time.
