Period for return of borrowed library items
(1)This section makes provision for section 24(1) (Return or recall of borrowed items) of the rule.
(2) If a person borrows an item from a library collection, the person must return the item to the Library on or before the date specified for the return of the item in the Library Management System and, if a time on that date is specified in the system, at or before that time on that date.
(3) If a person borrows an item from a library collection and no date is specified for the return of the item in the Library Management System, the person must return the item to the Library within the required period after the day the item was borrowed.
(4) For subsection (3), the required period is 28 days for a book and 7 days for audio-visual material, a periodical or any other item.
Exceptions to recall of borrowed library items
(1)This section makes provision for section 24(3) (Return or recall of borrowed items) of the rule.

Penalties for late return of borrowed library items.
(1)This section makes provision for section 24(5) (Return or recall of borrowed items) of the rule.
(2) The penalty payable by a person to the University for contravening section 24(1) or (2) of the rule by not returning an item to the Library as required is:
(a) for an item borrowed on a 2-hour or overnight loan—$12 for the first hour or part of an hour, and $6 for each subsequent hour or part of an hour, during which the contravention continues; and
(b) for any other item—$30 for each day or part of a day during which the contravention continues.
(3) However, if the penalty payable by a person to the University for the contravention in relation to the item would otherwise exceed $220, the penalty is $220.
