Studies are over: Return library books
If you finished your assessments or you’re about to graduate, it’s time to return library books.
After completing your assessments, visit a campus library to return the library books that you borrowed for your studies.
Access My Library, using your MyVU login, to see what items you have on loan and check the due date of your books.
Loan periods vary depending on the type of item you borrowed (standard or restricted loans). See Membership & Borrowing.
Graduating

As a VU alumni, you can apply for external membership to borrow print books only.
