By presenting a valid Niagara University ID card, students of the University may borrow and keep out up to 25 Library books.

The loan period is 28 days, and books may be renewed one time either in person, or by phoning the Circulation Desk at 716-286-8020, or electronically via the "My Account" module of the Library Catalog.

Overdue fines are 20 cents per book, per day. The fee for a lost book is a minimum of $50.00 (expensive books can be more).

Books placed on Reserve by your instructors may also be checked out at the Circulation Desk, but they must be read in the Library. The loan period for reserve materials is two hours, and overdue fines amount to 50 cents per item per hour.

You can use the Library Catalog to view your own Library account. Choose the "My Account" tab at the top of the screen. After you type in the barcode number that appears on your ID card, you will be able to determine:

• what books you have checked out
• what fines you owe
• what items you have placed on hold

For a more information, please view the Borrowing Rules Page, or contact Debbie Farrell, Circulation Department Coordinator, at 716-286-8025.
