Loans and requests

Summer loans

All loans from 27 May (not including interlibrary loans) have extended loan periods until 17 August.

You can check specific return dates on your library account .

During the library's summer closure you cannot visit the library or borrow books. You can make requests all summer. However, print books are only available for pick-up when the library is open.

If you wish to return books, you can do so in the book drop next to the library's entrance. The book drop is open all summer.

Access to electronic material off campus

As a student or employee with a KTH account, you automatically have access to all electronic material through the library, even if you work remotely.
