Borrowing & Consulting

You can borrow most recent documents, except for reference books, certain periodicals and documents that are too fragile.

The duration of the loan depends on the document and your reader status (from 1 week to 3 months).

If you are a member of the ULiège community, your loans will be automatically renewed, unless the document has been reserved by another user, and within the limit of the period authorized for renewals.

If you are an external user, you can extend a loan online from your reader account, unless the document is reserved by another user or the total duration of your loan is too long.

Is a publication that you want to borrow already out on loan? Log in and reserve it online. You will be notified by email when it is ready for you.

If a borrowed book is reserved by another user, a message will be sent inviting you to return it to the library as soon as you no longer need it. For very long loans (3 months), the return date may be reduced to one month from the reminder date.

You can return your documents to the premises from which you borrowed them, or at almost any ULiège Library branches.

Some libraries are equipped with a return box so you can return your items outside of opening hours.

Some facilities are equipped with self-service borrowing machines. Please feel free to use them to borrow or return documents.

The loan service is free of charge.

For external users, a penalty fee of €0.15 per document and day overdue may apply.
