Renewals and returns

We will automatically renew your loans 3 days before the due date and send you a renewal notice. We will let you know if the item cannot be renewed, for example if there is a hold placed on it, or if you've reached the renewal limit.

RMIT Library returns

The returns chutes are open at all Library sites.

Swanston and Bundoora Libraries:

Document Delivery returns

During opening hours: return items to any RMIT University Library site.

Check the Library opening hours before coming to campus.

CAVAL and ULANZ returns

If you have borrowed from another Library as a CAVAL or ULANZ borrower, you will need to return the item/s back to that library. Please contact them first for details.

Let us know as soon as possible if you have any problems returning items to the Library. For example, if:

• the items are lost, stolen or damaged,
• items you have returned still appear on your record,
• you have items on your record which you have never borrowed.

Please note: Reporting an issue does not automatically mean that the Library will waive any costs that you have incurred.
