Services

Bring items to the circulation desk, and show your library-user card with them. Chikushi Library has automatic borrowing machine.

As long as an item is not requested by another user, you may renew it for another borrowing period (Books only). You may not renew overdue items. Remember that renewed loan period starts from the day you make the renewal procedures, not from the original due date.

[By online]
If you use MyAccount you can renew your borrowing items by your own.

[In person]
Go to the circulation desk and present your library-user ID and the material you would like to renew.

Return materials at the circulation desk or when the library is closed, you can return them to the book posts (located outside). Patrons may return items at any libraries on campus excepted ILL materials.

Overdue
If you have not returned items by the due date, you are not allowed to borrow another material. Even though you return the overdued items, you cannot borrow any items during your penalty term. The duration of the term is the number of days of exceeding.

When you would like to use a book that is currently checked out by another user, you can place it on reserve. Please submit a complete request by online (Cute.Catalog). You may also submit at the circulation desk.

You can request a book which is not owned in the library.​ (Kyushu University members only)
Even if the library is closing, we can purchase and provide ebooks. We will also consider purchasing books in print form as ebooks. Please make a request a book necessary for your study or research from Web form.

※The decision of purchasing books will be determined based on each library's collection development standards. Cheap, expensive, or continuous books may be not purchased.
※The Central Library, Medical Library, Design Library, Chikushi Library, and Science and Technology Library can be requested to distribute the books.
※To purchase books with your budgets, click here.

※This may take longer than usual due to staff's working from home and the publisher's situation. If the book is sold as an ebook, the approximate necessary time from request to delivery is one or two weeks for Japanese books and three or four weeks for foreign books.
