How do I search OPAC from the accelerator?

The accelerator allows you to perform an OPAC keyword search with just one click. Simply select text in a webpage, which highlights the text, and click the selected text.

Long-term loan

Category: 9. Other

If you know that you will be unable to return a book by the return due date because you need it for training purposes or other such reasons, apply for an extended loan when checking out the book.

Note that the borrowing period cannot be extended for graduates and people outside the university. To get an extension, visit the library before the return due date arrives, and follow the extension procedure.
