What should I do if I cannot return my books?
Answer
All borrowed books are automatically renewed if they have a loan period of one week or longer unless they have been requested by another user.
If you are planning to leave London for an extended period, please note that standard (eight-week) loan books can be recalled if they are requested by another user. You will be notified by email and given one week to return the books to us.
If you are unable to visit the library in person to return a book, it can be posted to a UCL library address listed on our webpages.
The book will remain your responsibility until it has been received at the library, so it is a good idea to send them by recorded or signed for delivery.
If a book becomes overdue you would incur fines. Visit this page for more information about borrowing.
You can also contact the library via email at: library@ucl.ac.uk
