3. If you still do not find the materials you are looking for, try searching from the [Other Univ.] tab or [Cross Search] tab.
   If you can confirm that the library of another institution possesses the materials you are looking for, you may be able to go directly to that library to use the materials there or get them from the library.

• Renewed return dates are calculated based on the special online rules of each holding library.
• An online renewal is updated on the day that the update process is executed. Note that the borrowing period is not an added period from the due date.
• Renewal is not possible in the following cases:
  • Materials for "holiday loan"
  • Materials already reserved by another user
  • Overdue materials and materials in a restricted borrowing period
  • Where update may not be possible depending on the material type (textbooks, serials, etc.)

• Cancellation of a borrowing restriction takes effect on OPAC at about 6:00 a.m. on the cancellation date.
  If you are a user whose borrowing is restricted but you want to renew or reserve different materials currently checked out from the same library/room, do so after 6:00 a.m. on the borrowing restriction cancellation date.
  
• Libraries/rooms have book drops. Any materials returned after hours to the book drop of a library are basically considered returned on the previous business day with the return processed on the next business day.
  
• Library/room use privileges may be suspended for long overdue accounts.
  
• Overdue materials and materials with penalties incurred at a library/room can be borrowed from another library/room. They can also be reserved and renewed from OPAC.
  
• Even if your account still had overdue materials and a borrowing restriction, you could apply from OPAC to copy a book (get a copy from another library) and borrow a book (back-order the actual book). You could also make a library purchase request (* Being prepared).
