Only a registered Library Client is allowed to borrow library materials according to their eligibility. Loan eligibility and borrowing period differ according to the clients’ categories. Borrowing can be done either at the Self-Check machines or the Circulation Counter (for transactions that need special attention only). To enable borrowing of library materials, you are required to register your student/staff card at the Circulation Counter, Level 2.

• Return
  A Library Client can return books at the Circulation Counter and Smart Bookdrop Machine located outside the library building which is available 24 hours a day. This machine will automatically update the client record.
• Overdue/Late Return Fines/Penalty 
  A Library Client is expected to return library materials before or on the due date, after which an overdue fine will be imposed. The client will not be allowed to borrow any library materials until the fine is paid. This is to encourage users to return books on time and to give others a fair opportunity to borrow the books. Payment is to be made at the Circulation Counter or via EzPay and the fine rates are as in the table below:

• Renewal
  A Library Client may renew their borrowings at Self-Check machines and the Circulation Counter (renewals that need special attention only). If the loan period is not yet due, renewal can also be done online through the “My Account” section in the library catalogue.
  
  
• Reservation/Hold
  A Library Client may reserve a book that is out on loan to ensure that he/she gets the item when it is returned. Reservation of books with status ‘on-loan’ can be done via the library catalogue and printed form at the Circulation Counter (for certain cases). A client can view the status of the reservation if they do it online. A notice will be sent to the requestor informing him/her to claim the reserved book when it is available. The book will be kept (on hold) at the Circulation Counter for 7 days only after which it will be returned to the shelves.
  
  
• Self-Check Machines
  The Library provides three (3) units of Self-Check machines for self-service borrowing of library books at the Gombak Campus Library. Upon borrowing, the Self-Check machines will issue a due date receipt. Clients are advised to retain this receipt for future reference. These machines are also available at Kuantan Library and CFS Gambang Library.
  
  
• Book Security System 
  The security gate system with electronic sensing of books ensures that only materials that have been systematically borrowed can be brought out of the library building. A warning bell is triggered if a material that has not been officially borrowed is brought through the security gate.
